Vegetable Pad Thai

Soaking the rice noodles in warm, not boiling, water is what keeps them from turning mushy before they even hit the wok.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz rice noodles
  • 3 tbsp tamari
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp allulose
  • 1 tbsp tamarind paste (or extra lime juice)
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups bean sprouts
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 1/4 cup crushed peanuts
  • lime wedges

Method

  1. 1

    Soak the rice noodles in warm (not boiling) water for 20-30 minutes until pliable but still firm — warm water softens them gently, while boiling water overcooks them before they even reach the wok, leaving them mushy after stir-frying.

  2. 2

    Whisk tamari, rice vinegar, allulose, and tamarind paste for the sauce.

  3. 3

    Heat avocado oil in a wok over high heat, scramble the eggs quickly, then push to the side.

  4. 4

    Add the drained noodles and sauce, tossing constantly 2-3 minutes until the noodles are coated and tender.

  5. 5

    Add bean sprouts and green onions, tossing 1 minute, and serve topped with crushed peanuts and lime wedges.
