Easy Vegetarian Pad Thai Noodle Recipe
An authentic pad Thai recipe usually has tamarind juice or pulp to give it a distinct orange hue and sweet flavor. Tamarind can be hard to find, however, depending on where you live. Try this easy vegetarian and vegan version instead.
INGREDIENTS:
1 pound Asian-style noodles
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup lime juice
2 tbsp peanut butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 green chili, minced
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated or minced
2 tbsp sesame oil
3 carrots, sliced thin
1/2 cup bean sprouts
1/4 cup chopped or crushed peanuts (optional)
4 green onions (scallions), sliced
PREPARATION:
Cook noodles according to package instructions.
Whisk together the soy sauce, peanut butter, lime juice, chilie and sugar.
In a large wok or skillet, sautee the onion, garlic and ginger in sesame oil for a minute or two, stirring frequently.
Add the carrots and allow to cook for another minute or two.
Add the bean sprouts, cooked noodles and the peanut butter and soy sauce mixture. Stir well, and allow sauce to thicken as it cooks for about 3 minutes. Stir in the peanuts and green onions and serve hot.
