Pad-Thai, a traditional Thai favourite of many Thais and Singaporeans alike! Here, it's a dish consisting of rice noodles stir-fried with succulent and extremely fresh prawns, crunchy bean sprouts, fragrant roasted peanuts and egg. It seems to me that only a woman will be able to make a superbly authentic Thai dish, just like our moms! Their edge over a male cook? The love and passion that they inject into cooking a dish for their loved ones, which is so similar to that of our Peranakan culture, where the matriarch is always in charge of cooking all those marvelous dishes that nobody else is able to recreate.
