Tamarind Pad Thai
Flexible rice noodles with tangy tamarind sauce, shrimp, egg, crisp sprouts and peanuts.
Fresh herbs and the delicious balance of sweet, sour, salty and spicy.
Choose a dish before trying to make every bowl equally sweet, sour, salty and hot. A lime-forward soup, coconut curry and quick noodle stir-fry have different targets. Check tamarind strength, curry-paste seasoning and coconut-milk form before measuring; prepare herbs and small sauce portions before heating the pan so the final stages can move quickly.
