Ingredients

– 200 g rice noodles;
– 200 g fresh shrimp (you can substitute chicken or tofu for a vegetarian version);
– 2 eggs;
– 100 g bean sprouts;
– 2 spring onions;
– 2 cloves garlic;
– 2 tablespoons palm sugar (or brown sugar);

Preparation

Preparing the noodles: Soak the rice noodles in hot water for about 10-15 minutes, until soft. Drain and set aside.
Preparing the sauces: In a bowl, combine the fish sauce, tamarind juice, soy sauce, and palm sugar until the sugar has dissolved.
Cooking the main ingredients: Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1 minute, until golden. Add the shrimp (or chicken, or tofu) and cook until fully cooked. Move the shrimp to one side of the pan.

Combine the noodles and sauces: Add the soaked noodles to the pan, pouring the sauce mixture over them. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Add the bean sprouts and spring onions: Add the chopped bean sprouts and spring onions, stirring for a couple of minutes until just tender.
Distribute the Pad Thai among the plates, sprinkling with chopped toasted peanuts and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and chili powder, to taste.
