Dinner on 02/25/09

I found a recipe for Pad Thai (Thai Style Fried Noodle) while cleaning up my messy documents, and I got interested to try it, since Pad Thai was one of my favourite food in US. So today, I cooked Pad Thai for dinner, after we finally have prawns in our fridge :p

Pad Thai
The main ingredients for the Pad Thai dish from the recipe includes noodle, prawns, roasted peanuts, preserved radish, bean sprout, shallots and garlic; and seasoning are tomato sauce, thai chili sauce, tamarind juice, sugar, fish sauce and chilli flakes. We also added carrot, cili padi and curry leaves which are not called in the original recipe :)

As can see from the photo, the Pad Thai does not look like actual Pad Thai, and in fact the taste was not exactly like Pad Thai too :( This 1st attempt was not successful. Hmm.. I guess I put in too much tomato and chilli sauce, and cooked a bit too long. Anyway, I'm going to try cooking Pad Thai again in the near future. I guess I will have to do more homework before I make 2nd attempt.
