Pad Thai
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked whole-grain thin rice noodles (or any whole-grain noodles) (cooked as per packet instructions)
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 cup chopped veggies
- 1 tbsp date paste
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 3 tbsp chopped peanuts
- 3-4 scallions, cut diagonally into 1″ long pcs
- Lime wedges and fresh coriander leaves for the garnish
Method
Heat a large wok on high heat. Add the garlic and stir fry until light brown – but do not burn. Add veggies and  stir fry for 3-5 minute, adding the ones that take longer to cook first, until they are all cooked but still firm. Add the noodles, separating them slightly with a fork, to prevent sticking.
Reduce heat and add date paste, stirring and tossing the noodles well to combine. Add bean sprouts, scallions and chopped peanuts and serve immediately with lime and coriander.
