Recipe of Pad Thai

Join me and let's see how to make Pad Thai

Instructions:

Step 1
• Prepare Noodles: Soak the rice noodles in warm water for about 20 minutes or until they are pliable but still firm. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
• Make Pad Thai Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together tamarind paste, fish sauce (or soy sauce), sugar, and chili flakes. Adjust the flavors to your liking, adding more sugar for sweetness or more chili for heat.
Step 3
• Cook Protein: In a large wok or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and your choice of protein (shrimp, chicken, or tofu). Cook until the protein is no longer pink and shrimp turns pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
• Add Eggs: Push the cooked protein to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs into the other side and scramble them until they're nearly set.
Step 5
• Combine Ingredients: Add the drained rice noodles to the pan, followed by the prepared Pad Thai sauce. Use tongs to toss everything together until the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce.
Step 6
• Add Vegetables: Stir in bean sprouts and chopped green onions. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the bean sprouts are slightly wilted.
Step 7
• Serve: Transfer the Pad Thai to serving plates. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts and garnish with lime wedges. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Pad Thai!
