INSTRUCTIONS

Recipe by: Jeff Smith (The Frugal Gourmet On Our Immigrant Ancestors)
* available at some Asian markets  Start this dish by preparing the
Tamarind sauce (recipe follows). Set  it as cool.  Soak the noodles in
ample warm water until supple, about 15 minutes,  drain set aside.
Place the noodles in boiling water and cook just  until the water
returns to the boil. Drain again. Heat the oil for  deep-frying to 375
degre and deep-fry the tofu. Be sure to pat the  tofu dry on a paper
towel first s it will not spatter fat on you.  Drain the tofu and set
aside.  Heat a large wok and add the peanut oil, garlic, and chicken.
Stir-fry for minutes and then add the shrimp, drained noodles, beaten
eggs, and deep-fri tofu. Toss well and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes
over medium-high heat. Add remaining ingredients, except the
garnishes, and stir-fry for a few more mi until the noodles are hot
and tender.  Place on a serving platter with the garnishes, which are
an integral  part o dish. Serves 4-6.  NOTES: To make your own shrimp
powder, grind dried shrimp in a food  process blender. Peanut oil can
be reduced by half.
