Steps:
- We think best to follow manufacturer's instructions (albeit rinse for a little longer until the konjac plant aroma goes away). So it's easy peasy: drain the noodles, rinse well in cold water, place in boiling water for two minutes, then dry the noodles in a non-oiled pan over medium heat. Set aside.
- Whisk together thoroughly in a small bowl fish sauce, coconut aminos, sweetener and red pepper flakes or cayenne. Add lime juice to taste, starting at 2 tablespoons.
- Heat up oil in a skillet or pan over medium heat. Add in garlic and sautée briefly until it just starts to brown. Add in shrimp and cook for 2-5 minutes on each side (depending on their size), until just cooked through. Pile the shrimp on the edge of the pan.
- Pour in the lightly beaten eggs and continue to cook, stirring them to scramble, until solid but still moist and tender.
- Pour in the prepared sauce and mix briefly until the shrimp and scrambled eggs are evenly coated. Add in prepared noodles, tossing to coat in the sauce. Add soy sprouts and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with green onions, cilantro and peanuts. Serve immediately with fresh lime.

- Separately, combine the soy sauce, peanut butter, water and red pepper paste. Pour the sauce over the noodles and meat.

Tips:
- Use a good quality almond butter. This is the base of the sauce, so it's important to use one that is smooth and creamy.
- Add a little bit of heat. A little bit of chili pepper or sriracha can add a nice kick to the sauce.
- Don't overcook the shirataki noodles. They should be cooked until they are tender, but still have a little bit of a bite to them.
- Add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include peanuts, cilantro, and lime wedges.
- Serve immediately. Pad Thai is best served fresh out of the wok.
