When you have sneezed at least 500 times since the morning what you will do? Probably rest. But if the person happens to be crazy like me, then they will cook noodles. I just love Noodles, and a good plate of noodles always cheer me up. Since my son was also under the weather and missed school, we were thinking of ordering pizza or making Maggi for lunch. The only problem was that my taste buds were going crazy. I needed something which can make my day a little better.
I love pad thai, and I have tried several restaurants in the last few years but was never convinced by their vegetarian pad thai. I always thought that they are little less on flavour. So for my own sake, I have tried making this several times and I can finally say that I have the perfect recipe which makes perfect veg pad thai every time. It has a little hint of sweetness, which complements the tanginess of tamarind in the sauce. Its spicy because of fresh Thai chillies at the same time it feels really fresh because of all the wonderful vegetables we used.
So here I present to you my super simple recipe of veg pad thai, which is full of flavour, less time consuming and better then any restaurant
