I prepare each serving one at a time, if you cook pad Thai in batches the flavors and textures are changed due to cooking in a wok.

About

A national noodle dish of Thailand. It is now served in many trendy restaurants. It is a personal dish - you can add ingredients that you like, and make it as spicy or tart as you wish. Can be used as a basis for a stir fry of leftovers. Rice noodles are available at most ethnic Asian and gourmet stores.
