Good, not great. Very dry. You need to double the sauce.

yummy! I didnt add the fish sauce because I didnt have any. I also used leftover spaghetti noodles (without the spaghetti sauce) instead of the rice noodles. Deeeelish!!! And easier than it looks.

Double the sauce!

It tasted very ketsup-y to me, not at all like you would get at a restaurant. Would not make again.

The flavor is OK- not quite what I'm used to from Thai restaurants. I doubled the sauce as suggested and I think it could use even more! The main problem I had was with the egg- when I added the beaten egg straight to the mixture it just caused it to thicken and become paste-like. Since the noodles hadn't been added, the mixture was too liquidy to push to the side and fry the egg in the center like you do with other stir fry dishes. If I try this again I think I will start to fry the egg in a separate pan and then add it. If I have better luck next time maybe I will change my rating. Good luck.

Very tasty! I also tripled the sauce but got impatient with measuring and went heavy on the ketchup (not a good idea) The more bean sprouts the better! I used oyster sauce instead of fish sauce because thats what I had onhand and it was very good that way.

Excellent! I did make some changes as recommended by other reviewers. I tripled the sauce, and scrambled the eggs before adding the sauce. I also substituted chicken instead of shrimp. I just cooked the chicken in a separate pan, chopped it and added it after cooking my eggs and before adding my sauce. I also added cayenne pepper to give it more of a kick and for color. Cayenne or red pepper flakes are a must in this recipe, otherwise it will be bland.

Flavor is pretty good, but not bold enough. Followed others advise about tripling sauce. I was hoping it would duplicate a fantastic Thai restaurant's recipe, unfortunatly this wasn't it. I'll have to keep looking.

It was tasty but needed some adjusting. The noodles should be pre cooked before adding it to the sauce, because the amount of sauce is to little to cook the noodles. Also I would scramble the egg before pouring into the mixture. The sauce should be double the amount. Wasn't to happy with this recipe. I ahd to keep adding things to make it work

I followed the directions to a tee and came out not so lucky... turned out terrible unfortunately.

Fantastic recipe. I forgot to buy peanuts and used natural peanut butter instead, and it worked beautifully. I will say that it needs some more liquid - perhaps water or broth. I found the noodles a bit dry in spite of following the soaking/cooking directions exactly.

This is so easy to make if you have all the ingredients on-hand. I came across this recipe by accident trying to use the leftover ingredients from the Vieatnamese Beef Pho recipe. With the noodles already cooked, I had these set aside from the pho, it only took about 15 minutes to prepare the entire dish.

I've been looking for a better Pad Thai sauce than the one I've always use. I don't like the paprika in it. This one wasn't too bad. First, don't substitute the fish sauce and all. That's what makes the sauce taste good. That's the base of most, if not all, Thai cooking. So if you don't use that, don't even try this recipe. Second, I scrambled the eggs then added the noodles then the sauce. If your noodles are too soggy it's either because you didn't use the right size noodles (I don't recommend the small size since they're too thin. Medium or large is best. If you can't find the variety at your regular grocery store, go to an Asian store, they'll have it.) Also, don't soak your noodles in hot water or for too long. That makes the noodles too soft which once cooked will be too soggy. Your noodles are ready to be cooked once they're bendable but still have a slight crunch in them. Overall, it wasn't too bad. I'd use it again.

Not a whole lot of flavor.

As recommended by other reviews, I doubled the sauce. However, it still was not enough! My noodle turned out soggy too...I definatly recommend using the package directions (2-3 mins) instead of the direction here (30 mins). Next time I will cook the eggs first and set aside becuase they soaked up all the sauce, and I will quadruple the sauce and cut the noodles in half.

I had been looking for a basic Pad Thai recipe for awhile, and when I came across this one I knew it would work. Try changing the following though: added: green onions, carrot, chili sauce and a splash of hot sauce, oyster sauce rice wine vinegar, cabbage (just abit) and the lime. I dumped : ketchup, fish sauce white wine vinegar and the lemon. Oh, by the way... double the sauce!
