Closet Cooking

Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Pad Thai

[heart_this] · Jun 7, 2013 · 109 Comments

Pad Thai

Stir-fried shrimp and rice noodles in a tasty sweet, salty, sour and spicy sauce topped with roasted peanuts.

Pad Thai, a Thai style stir fried rice noodle dish, has to be one of my all time favourite meals and I always enjoy using its ingredient and flavour combinations in other dishes. With all of the Pad Thai style dishes that I have been making as of late I was reminded that I needed to update the original Pad Thai recipe along with it’s 5 year old photo. Given my obsession with Pad Thai it’s a good thing that it’s so easy to make at home and the only ‘exotic’ ingredients that you really need to track down are the tamarind concentrate and the fish sauce which can be replaced by more commonly available lime juice and soy sauce in a pinch. One of the great things about Pad Thai is it’s amazingly magical balance of sour, salty, sweet and spicy created by the tamarind, fish sauce, sugar and chili sauce. All said and told, Pad Thai really only takes less than 10 minutes to cook and things go quickly after the first ingredient hits the pan so the secret to success is in making sure that you have all of the ingredients ready to go before you start cooking. It’s so easy to enjoy Pad Thai at home, even on a busy weeknight and with this recipe it is sure to become one of your favourite meals as well!

    You really need to do a post on food photography. I can’t figure out how you always get such great lighting! Do you cook when it’s still light out, or do you have a light box, or special lights? I must know!

    I made the sauce with actual Tamarind paste, once I figured out how to use and apply it in the recipe, it actually came out very well. I added thinly sliced carrots, sugar snap peas cut on the bias, as well as celery and left out the bean sprouts. Gotta do what works for you. Anyway, thanks for another winner. I think this is recipe number 15 I have tried from your blog. Keep up the great work Kevin.

    Thank you for a fairly easy delicious Pad Thai recipe! Loved it! My rice noodles were over-cooked but I am fairly sure now that I shouldn't have boiled the water first, just made it hot. The taste was awesome & authentic!

    Kim: Glad you liked it! Cook the noodles as directed on the package but pull them out when they are just pliable, ie. 'undercooked', as they will finish cooking when stir-fried.

    I cooked this last night and my dinner was a sticky mess. I didn't over soak my noodles. I followed the recipe completely and still my dinner was horrible. I think my Pad Thai days are over.

    Anonymous: When you say sticky do you mean that the noodles were mushy or that the were al-dente tender but they stuck to each other horribly?

    If you mean that they were mushy, it does sound like the noodles were over cooked. How long were they in the pan for stir-frying? In total they should be in the pan for no more than 3-5 minutes.

    If you mean that they stuck together horribly, then a good trick is to lightly rinse the noodles swishing them around in a bit of water before adding them to the pan. After you remove the noodles from soaking in the water they will start to dry and get sticky. Ideally you would like to get them into the pan as soon as possible but if they do get sticky, then rinsing them in a bit of water will quickly un-stick them.

    I'll be making pad thai today for the first time and am so excited! I remember when you made this! Great tips! I didn't get palm sugar, I'm wonderful it regular sugar would work? or even honey!?

    The Little Ferraro Kitchen: Brown sugar would be the best substitute but regular sugar will work as well. Enjoy!

    Kevin, what fish sauce do you use? I made pad thai another day but it had this nasty fish sauce after taste. I was wondering if I need to buy different fish sauce. Your recipe looks great! Thanks.

    Elina: I use 3 Crabs and I like it, though I do not have a lot of selection here so I have not really been able to compare it. You can cut back on the amount of fish sauce and replace some or all of it with soy sauce to reduce the fish flavour. You can also use more lime juice which helps cut through the fish flavour.

    Thanks for listing a substitute for the tamarind concentrate. I haven't been able to find it and every recipe I've seen calls for it. Can't wait to try this.

    We just finish our dinner and it was delicious and easy to make, I just add an extra chili sauce because we like spicy food.
    This Pad Thai recipe is a keeper, thank you.

    Kevin…I'm stopping by today to compliment you on an awesome Pad Thai recipe which I made last night…the flavours were spot on! Made mine with tofu (meatless Monday) and the hubby and I totally enjoyed it with leftovers for lunch today. This is the standard for me. Thank you!

    Hello! I know this is an old post, but can you tell me what you mean by "chili sauce?" Thanks!

    Melissa Flake: Use a chili sauce like a sriracha or a sambal oelek or tabasco sauce, etc. Enjoy!

    I made this recipe back when I was in college from 2008-2012. I’m glad to find it again. I’m such a fan of this recipe.

    I watched a couple of videos on Youtube and then looked at other recipes. But yours is the recipe I used. You gave the ingredients. And then, most importantly, a simple, numbered set of instructions. It made it easy-peasy! Well almost. There’s a lot of prep. But the result was delicious. I will keep this to do again for my grandsons. Thank you!

    Made this today with palmini noodles and it was incredible! Pad Thai has always been one of my favorite dishes. Thank you for such a delicious recipe I can easily make at home.
