Excellent! My family gobbled this up... Here are my alterations: I reduced the peanut butter to 1 cup, it was plenty for sure, and used lime juice instead of lemon which I highly recommend, so tasty! I also ran out of soy sauce so I used teriyaki sauce instead and omitted the sugar. Lastly I used about 1 tsp of curry powder because I was out of paprika too. My husband said, put this one on the heavy rotation!

This was very good. I followed some advice from the others who made it and used 1/3 cup of brown sugar. I don't think I made this dish exactly as directed but it's still really good and is a good 1st asian dish for me. I highly recommend a Wok because the large sauce pan didn't make it as pretty. I'm going to add this recipe to my cookbook. Thanks for the recipe!

I've made this dish many, many times since discovering it on this website and wanted to say thank you for the great posting, as well as all the other user's suggestions. It makes a great dish that all three of my picky eaters (2 kids and 1 husband) all agree on.

This dish was just alright for us. I think it has a little too much peanut butter. Not very authentic pad thai.

This was the first recipe I used on allrecipes.com, and we still love it. Is pretty heavy and sweet, but worth it. We make a whole batch, then add it to recipes in smaller amounts. I love it because I can't eat fish, and my husband likes the extra peanut flavor. Follow the directions on your noodles. I boil water and pour it over the noodles until they are pliable but not completely soft, this helps them not stick. We spice ours up with chili paste and use lime, not lemon. This is still my favorite recipe here.

My husband LOVED this dish! I took others advice and modified the peanut butter and sugar. I used 1 cup of peanut butter and 3/4 cup of brown sugar. I wanted more veggies so I added mushrooms and bok choy!

This is one of my favorite recipes. I have made it several times at the request of friends. Go easy on the cayenne, most people don't like it. Also, use 1/3 less peanut butter than suggested or it will be too overbearing. I always end up putting in a little extra water so it doesn't get too thick and clumpy and alot of extra lime juice. I didn't have peanut oil so I used half veg. half sesame oil. Only used 1 c. brown sugar.

This was OK, but like many other reviewers I would say to cut WAY down on the peanut butter and cut back on the brown sugar. It was overwhelmingly peanut-y and a bit sweet for my tastes. Also, I say save the raw chopped/ground peanuts to sprinkle on top at the end. Otherwise would be good with a bit of tweaking.

Great recipe - one of the best Thai recipes I've ever had. Just as another reviewer recommended, I also substituted curry paste for paprika - it was delicious. The next time I make this I might try reducing the amount of peanut butter to lighten the dish.

I made a half recipe and that was perfect for four. I didn't find there was too much sauce. I did substitute agave syrup for the brown sugar (lower glycemic index). I found it rather bland though. Maybe my peanut butter isn't as peanutty as others because I didn't find the peanut flavor over powering either. I jazzed it up a bit with a little ground ginger and some fish sauce but still didn't really ring my bell. Sorry.

Wonderful! Just like the savory Seattle Phad Thai I used to get years ago (minus the tamarind, which I will add next time)!! A few caveats: I used a can of coconut milk in place of the 1 c. milk, and only about 1/3 c. brown sugar, despite using Adam's natural chunky PB which is not very sweet; I also used Asian chili sauce, not cayenne. For veggies I used 1 pkg firm tofu, snowpeas, onion greens and shredded cabbage. Everything came together so quickly and easily & angel hair pasta was just great with this; we'll be making this recipe again and again in the years to come!

Very good recipe! It has a very peanutty taste, so if you don't like peanuts, this is not the recipe for you. Delicious with fresh lime squeezed on top! I used sesame oil instead of peanut oil, as some reviewers suggested, because I was unable to find peanut oil at the store. I made a half recipe, and there was probably more sauce than was needed. When I make it next time, I think I'll use 1 1/2 times the noodles along with the amount of sauce that the recipe calls for.
