Pad Thai在泰国是大街小巷都可以找到的炒粉，它几乎就是泰国人口味的缩影，酸甜辣鲜。来了美国我尝试过好几家泰国餐厅，不得不说的是，都让我非常地失望。
Pad Thai is a very common street food in Thailand, especially in Bangkok, those hawkers who made this dish day in and day out do it with such a perfection, they managed to stir in right amount of char to the rather common ingredients of all Thai foods and make it taste so unique and unforgettable!
I have tried Pad Thai in many restaurants here in the states and in Europe, I wouldn't hide my disappointment, as it is often too oily and way too sweet! I stopped ordering from a restaurant, when I crave for it, I just make it at home, since I almost always have the ingredients needed at home.
Ingredients：
200 g/1/2 packet of Pad Thai noodle (Flat)
8-10 Medium size shrimps
50 g Chicken Breast (slice and marinate with a pinch of salt and pepper）
1 egg
1/2 piece of firm tofu（cut into 1 mm X 5 mm cubes）
1 cup of Chinese Chive (Cup into 1 inch in length)
1 1/2 cup of Bean Sprout
2-3 cloves of garlic
2 Shallot
1-2 tbsp chopped Chinese pickled radish-Chai Poh Optional
2-3 tbsp Peanut （Roasted and crush）
1 piece of lime
Seasoning：
1.5 tbsp Fish Sauce（Or Soy Sauce for vegetarian version）
1 tbsp light Soy Sauce
1 tbsp Palm or brown sugar ( I used organic coconut sugar)
1 tsp Tamarind paste（or 2-3 tbsp lime/lemon juice）
1/2 tsp Thai Chili Powder more if you like it hot（or any chilli powder you have）
1. 把蝦去殼去腸泥，蝦頭蝦殼留著。 豆腐切丁，紅蔥和蒜切碎，雞肉切片醃好。
