I made this meal and it turned out great. It was pretty simple to cook. I didn’t use the cabbage, you don’t have to either.

Cooking Tip: I strongly recommend having everything set out first and cut.

Pad Thai Recipe

Serves 4

Directions:

Soak the rice noodles in a large bowl of warm water until just pliable and almost tender, about 20 minutes. Drain noodles well.

Stir the fish sauce, vinegar and sugar in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.

Heat the oil in a large wok or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ginger, chile and garlic and sauté for 1 minute or until the garlic and chile softens and the mixture is fragrant.

Add the shrimp and stir-fry until they are pink and opaque in the center, about 2 minutes.

Add the cabbage, 2 cups of bean sprouts, and half of the cilantro. Add the fish sauce mixture. Stir-fry for 2 minutes or until the cabbage begins to wilt.

Add the noodles and toss until the noodles are tender.

Transfer to 4 plates, mounding slightly and dividing equally. Arrange the shrimp around the noodles. Top with the remaining bean sprouts and cilantro.

Serve with the lime wedges.
