- 2 - 3 threads saffron
- 30 g nuckhen
Pad Thai
- 3 tbsp grape seed oil
- 1/4 cup peppers (sliced)

- 1/4 cup pad thai sauce
- 1 bunch green onions (sliced)

Instructions:
- Combine the tamari, chilies and saffron in a bowl. Add the nuckhen and marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes. Drain and reserve the marinade.
- In a large wok, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add the drained nuckhen and sear until golden on all sides. Remove from the wok and set aside.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the wok and then add the peppers and bok choy. Cook, stirring often until they begin to soften.
