Everything is cheap to buy and easy to find in the store except the tamarind pulp and oriental radish. So, I just left it out and it was awesome! Seriously, this is my signature meal now. The only other thing I changed was substituted lime juice for vinegar. The second time I made this, I added a little water (prob 1/4 cup) to the sauce to make it saucier. That's it! Sooooo good. My dad is super picky and he loved it!

This was delicious - although I did follow the comments from Bes which made it spectacular. The only thing I found a bit strange was that it never said how long to cook anything so it was a bit of a guessing game. Turned out great - my household agreed that it was the best pad thai we've ever had!

i never knew pad thai could taste this good. We added some chili for a little heat, and we substituted regular asian radish due to availability. This was so good! There is no disappointment here - blows delivery Thai out of the water.

I was really nervous about this recipe but it was AWESOME! My man told me to add this to the cookbook and will. I left out the fish sauce because I couldn't find it at the store but it was still great!

wow - even not having everything (missing radish/bean sprouts/peanuts) this was outstanding; based on the recommendations from Bes's review dated 4/29/06. per my rice noodle pkg, they are to be boiled for 8 minutes which is what i did. made with chicken, not tofu. cannot wait to make it again when i have everything on hand. it was so good i forgt to take a picture, we ate it right up! :-) thanks for the post Nan.

This is my favourite PT recipe....so easy and tastes just like a restaurant. I add snow peas and matchstick carrots for a little sweetness and colour. YUM!

Just like at the restuarnts. I had a bit of trouble finding the radish, but it was great without it.

I didn't have tamarind pulp or radish, so made without. It was tame, but good. I added a pound of cooked shrimp about 2 minutes before serving, just to warm them up. (no tofu)
