PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"RE: OTCC - Pad Thai"
Posted by Seana on 01-14-10 at 10:15 PM
I made this for dinner tonight. DH is on afternoons, so he wasn't around to ask me what the hell I was eating.

Anyway, I used chicken instead of tofu. Also, I looked for tamarind paste (not very hard), but couldn't find it. Honestly, there was a whole slew of Thai packets and jars. They all said "Pad Thai" on them. I found a red chili paste that had both tamarind paste and fish sauce in it, so I used that. It was really thick, so I diluted it with a bit of water. It also had a bit of heat to it, so I omitted the extra chilis. Next time, I'll make a greater effort to find the tamarind paste.

Anyway, this was really, really good. I will certainly make it again.

As an aside, I'd never had cilantro before. It's quite a strong flavour, isn't it? I haven't decided whether I like it or not. It worked in this dish, though.


My camera is acting up so I can't post a pic.
