Step : You will need

  • 1 Thai Rice Noodles, package
  • 1 medium egg
  • 1 lime, cut
  • 110 g raw shrimp, deveined
  • 2 tbsp peanuts
  • 1 cups (250ml) bean sprouts
  • ½ cups (120ml) green onion, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ tsp chili pepper, ground
  • ½ tsp shallot, minced
  • 4 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp white vinegar
  • 2 tbsp white sugar
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil

Step 1: Soak The Noodles

Fill a large bowl with lukewarm water and soak 1 package of Thai rice noodles for five to ten minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 2: Roasted Peanuts

Add 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok over high heat. Add 2 tbsp peanuts and stir until they're toasted brown. Remove the peanuts and set aside.

Step 3: The Main Ingredients

Add 3 cloves minced garlic and 1/2 tsp minced shallots to the hot oil, stir well. Once sautéed, add the soaked rice noodles and stir. Now add 2 tbsp white vinegar, 4 tbsp fish sauce, 2 tbsp sugar and 1/2 tsp chili pepper. Stir until the noodles soften.

Push the noodles to the side of the wok and scramble 1 egg. Fold the scrambled egg into the noodles. Add 1/4 lb (113 g) raw, shrimp. Cook the shrimp until they turn pink, then fold them into the noodles.

Finish by adding 1 cup (100 g) bean sprouts and 1/2 cup (50 g) chopped green onion. The sprouts will give off a lot of moisture, so keep the heat high and stir until the water evaporates.

Step 4: Serve

Pour the Pad Thai onto a large plate and garnish with chopped green onion, a squeeze of lime juice and the toasted peanuts. Serve hot and enjoy!

    something wrong here, you have to put the tammarind sauce right and stur this is important thing that can't forget and the perfect pad thai must have the tofu and beside with some vegetable I'll record the video and tell you later

    Make the sauce first by putting tamarind, palm sugar, fish sauce and chilli powder in a pan. Keep stir. Pour this sauce into your noodle while you are cooking it. You may add some water to soften the noodle. Add some fried, chopped hard tofu, too. It's really delicious.
