Number Of Ingredients 17

8 ounces pad thai noodles (flat rice noodles)
3/4 cup tamarind juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup chopped Thai palm sugar
6 tablespoons Thai fish sauce
1 teaspoon Sriracha
1/2 cup safflower oil
3 shallots, thinly sliced
5 scallions, cut lengthwise into 2-inch pieces, bulbs halved lengthwise
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces fried tofu, thinly sliced
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
Lime wedges
Cilantro sprigs
Sriracha
Bean sprouts
Roasted unsalted peanuts

Steps:

  • Soak noodles in warm water for 30 minutes. Drain in a colander and cover with damp paper towels until ready to use.
  • In a small saucepan, combine tamarind juice, soy sauce, palm sugar, fish sauce, and Sriracha. Bring to a boil, stirring, until sugar is dissolved and remove from heat.
  • Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. When oil shimmers, carefully add half the shallots and fry, stirring frequently, until shallots are golden brown. Transfer shallots to paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Raise heat to high and add remaining shallots, scallions, and shrimp. Cook, stirring constantly, just until shrimp are opaque and firm to the touch, 2 minutes. Remove to a plate, reserving oil in wok.
  • Add tofu to wok and cook to heat through, 1 minute, and transfer to plate with shrimp.
  • Add eggs to wok and cook, stirring constantly, just until eggs are set but still wet, 1 minute, and transfer to plate with shrimp and tofu.
  • Add sauce to wok and bring to a boil. Stir in noodles and cook until noodles are hot, 2 minutes. Return shrimp, tofu, and eggs to wok and stir to combine. Serve immediately with garnishes.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this pad thai was a complete disaster. The sauce was curdled and the shrimp and tofu were burnt.

This pad thai was a waste of time and money. The sauce was watery and the shrimp and tofu were tasteless.

This pad thai was a disappointment. The sauce was too sweet and the shrimp and tofu were rubbery.

I thought this pad thai was just okay. The sauce was a bit bland and the shrimp and tofu were overcooked.

This pad thai was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still delicious. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less chili pepper next time.

I'm not usually a fan of pad thai, but this recipe changed my mind. The spicy sauce was flavorful and the tofu was crispy. I'll definitely be making this again.
