I'm glad people are enjoying this recipe still.
You can also try this or something similar with spaghetti squash. It tastes pretty good. I have substituted the PB2 for almond butter on occasion, higher calories but gives it a nice peanut flavor.
If you want to make your own pad thai sauce you can use this recipe:
1-tbsp chili garlic sauce
4-tbsp fish sauce
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
1.5 tsp crushed red pepper (if you like it spicy)
optional: dash or cayenne pepper, lime juice, additional sweeter.0 -

I've been making Pad Thai with 20 calorie Vietnamese noodles (tapioca sticks; the ones I have are called Hu Thiu Dai My Tho). The noodles are made of tapioca flour only; there are similar noodles made of tapioca and rice flour that are 10X the calories, so label reading is crucial!
To prep the noodles, I put them in a bowl and cover them with boiling water, then cover the bowl with a plate or lid. The noodles soften up in about 15 minutes, and I then drain and rinse them with cold water.
I much prefer the texture and flavor of the tapioca noodles to shirataki. Any of you who have access to an Asian market with a good selection of Vietnamese foods should check them out! They're dried noodles, so you'll find them near the rice noodles and bean threads.
To the OP thanks for the recipe as a another Poster said some of what you have in the recipe I do not know where to find in Europe. The Vietnamese Noodles Tapioca sticks sounds like something I would like to try. Do you know if the Vietnamese Noodles can be purchased online?
I do use the Shirataki Noodles and love them when they are rinsed well and dry fried until moisture is gone.
I had the Shirataki Noodles for lunch today in a home made Pork sweet and sour Stir fry with pineapple and it was so good! I used Angel Hair pasta which is my favorite it has no calories or carbs.0 -

This sounds amazing. I've always liked Thai food and just today I was wondering how I'd be able to create a Thai dish with shirataki noodles. I also really want to try and spicy lime and coconut curry with the noodles. The pics look really good!
I definately don't think this recipe would be as good with the '0' cal shirataki noodles, the tofu ones are a lot better flavor and texture wise for dishes like this.
Thanks for posting, I hope I can try it soon!0 -
Sounds great. Thnx0
