Homemade Pad Thai You Need To Try

rice noodles

tbsp sesame oil

tbsp tamari (or soy sauce)

½ thai red chilli pepper, deseeded and minced

carrots, julienned (about 4 handfuls)*

bean sprouts*

green onion, sliced (plus more for topping)*

peanuts

tamari (or soy sauce)

lime juice

1½ tsp chilli garlic sauce

maple syrup (or palm sugar

tbsp rice vinegar

Prepare a large pot with water and bring to a boil for your noodles. 

While your water is heating up, julienne your carrots, slice your green onion, and slice the tofu into cubes.

Cook your rice noodles according to the package instructions (usually 5 minutes). Stir frequently so they don’t stick together. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking. You can also toss them in a bit of sesame oil but I find this usually isn’t needed. 

Heat a large skillet with 1 tbsp sesame oil over medium heat. Add your tofu cubes and cook for about 4 minutes until they are nicely browned. Give the skillet a shake every so often to prevent the tofu sticking. 

While your tofu browns, combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. 

When the tofu is lightly browned, add 1 tbsp tamari and ½ red chilli pepper. Toss to coat. 

Then add your carrots, bean sprouts, and green onion. Cook for 1 minute or so to soften slightly. 

Add your noodles and sauce. Stir and cook for about 4 minutes until everything is evenly coated, heated through, and slightly softened. 

To serve, divide among bowls and top with more green onion and chopped peanuts. Looking for a starter? Try our Thai Mango Salad!
