  • 1/3 cup rice vinegar

  • 2 Tbs creamy peanut butter

Pad Thai, or “soft noodle,” is a flavorful combination of noodles, tofu, and eggs in a spicy peanut sauce. We throw in a twist with a new noodle.

Directions

  • Combine tamari, vinegar, peanut butter and honey in a small bowl. Stir with a whisk until well-combined.
  • Heat 1 tsp (15mL) oil in a large nonstick skillet. Cook eggs over medium heat, stirring, until set. Remove eggs from skillet and set aside.
  • Return skillet to heat and add 2 tsp (10mL) oil. Add green onions, sprouts, garlic and red pepper. Sauté 1 minute. Add tofu and continue cooking 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add pasta to skillet, tossing with a large fork to combine ingredients. Cook 5 minutes more.
  • Stir in peanut butter mixture and eggs. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately garnished with peanuts, cilantro and lime wedges.
