I love noodles! Whether it is Spaghetti, Pancit, Pho, Ramen, Chow Mein, or this Pad Thai, if it has noodles I am probably going to love it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each culture has a variation with their own regional twists on ingredients and preparation methods. So I could have noodles every day of the week and it would be different every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the Ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Living in California our grocery stores usually have a well stocked aisle of Asian delights, and if I need something a little harder to find there are Asian markets of all kinds within a few miles. Depending on where you live, online may be the only place to source a few of the ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rice noodles <\/strong>look like vermicelli or linguine but are made of rice (yeah gluten free!). If you can't find the rice noodles, you could swap traditional linguine and cook it before preparing this dish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of brands of Sweet Chili Sauce<\/strong> to choose from. American chili sauce is not the same! If you need a substitute you can make your own with this recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fish Sauce<\/strong> is a must! I hide mine in the back of the refrigerator with the label facing away so my husband and son do not know it exists. It adds a wonderful umami flavor to marinades and sauces which they love but wouldn't eat if they knew what it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final tip:<\/strong> Be sure to have all of the ingredients ready to go once you start cooking since you will not have time to chop between stages. The cooking process is fast with ingredients being added to the pan every minute or two. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
