Pretty Pad Thai


I recently made this and tasted so good. I can't wait to make it again.

-sesame oil
-1 egg
-rice noodles
-shrimp
-bean sprouts
-red chile pepper(optional, but we love spicy!)
-lime
-peanuts, crushed
-fresh cilantro

Sauce
1/4 cup hot water
1 tbsp tamarind paste
2.5 tbsp fish sauce
3 tbsp brown sugar
Mix well.

Cook noodles according to package and set aside. In a large skillet or wok, heat oil and add egg and scramble. Remove and set aside. Add more oil if needed and shrimp and sauce ingredients and cook until done. Add in noodles and cook until they absorb sauce. Add bean sprouts, pepper and egg and cook 2-3 minutes more. Place noodle mixture in bowls and garnish with cilantro, peanuts and lime wedges.
