From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia...it is great for this kind of stuff too believe it or not...I put a link at the bottom with a recipe that has step by step directions..also the food network show "Good Eats" just had an entire show devoted to Pad Thai, in fact, it is airing again on the 24th at 7pm eastern (I love that guy!) ..he used a wok on a stand in a bar-b-que grill outside to make his...
Pad Thai (or Phad Thai, Thai 喔溹副喔斷箘喔椸涪, "Thai style frying") is a dish of stir-fried rice noodles with eggs, fish sauce, tamarind juice, red chilli pepper, plus any combination of bean sprouts, shrimp, chicken, or tofu, garnished with crushed peanuts and cilantro (coriander). It is normally served with a piece of lime, the juice of which can be added along with the usual Thai condiments. In Thailand, it is also served with a piece of banana flower.
There have evolved two different styles of Pad Thai: the version most often found in the streets of Thailand, which is relatively dry and light; and the version that seems dominant in many restaurants in the West, which may be covered in a red oil and can be heavy tasting.
This dish was introduced and made popular as a national dish by Luang Phibunsongkhram when he was Prime Minister during World War II, partly as part of his nationalism campaign. It was also part of a campaign to reduce rice consumption in Thailand at that time while the government faced a major budget crisis.
Outside of Thailand, Pad Thai is one of the most well known Thai dishes, and is very popular in Thai restaurants.

first, go to ur nearest oriental market %26amp; get yaself a good pack of "dry" rice stick noodles (thin). soak the noodles for 15 min, chill them/follow instructions on packet just like how u cook u spaghetti.
but for pad thai, u wanna rinse, drain %26amp; chill first. otherwise u'll get a very soggy starchy sticky pad thai.
not nice ! since u're at the market. grab a bag of this delicious cooked cured 5-spiced tofu (found in the refrigerator section - a 5-spiced, soy marinated cooked tofu). totally optional of coz. grab a bottle of fish sauce, soy sauce, some crushed red pepper flakes, ground peanuts, 1 lime, bean sprouts, thai chilis (optional) %26amp; couple bottles of thai teas..hehe.
1) on the pan, heat up some oil, stir fry some chopped garlic, sliced scallions for 30 sec., mix in some diced/shreds of chk/whatever meats u like, stir fry for 2
min., or until brown. mix in ur noodles, toss the pan handle a bit for a min, dash in some fish sauce, tofu strips, bean sprouts, con't tossing until u can smell all flavors coming together. remove heat.
2) sprinkle some ground peanuts, crush red chili peppers, and chopped up some thai chilis (a real kicker - they call it bird's eye chilis, very tiny red %26amp; green chilis-v/v/v/ spicy..even i can't handle it. u might wanna leave this one out). squeeze a lil' lime juice b4 serving. instead of tossing in bean sprouts when stir frying, u could also toss it on top when the noodles r ready. personal preferance. i like mine in b4, coz sometimes the bean sprouts have a very raw weird taste to it.
3) enjoy ! %26amp; have some thai teas too :)
note : a pack of 7oz. dry rice noodles is good enough for 4 servings.
