Preparation

To prepare Kuaitiao khua kai, the wide rice noodles are first soaked in water to soften them. They are then stir-fried in a wok with rendered chicken fat.

An egg is cracked into the wok and quickly scrambled. The dish is seasoned with fish sauce, soy sauce, and white pepper. The finished dish is served on a bed of lettuce.
