Make sure you use rice noodles. I grabbed flat bean noodles and it was a little sticky in the last steps.

We made this and doubled the recipe. I would not double the sauce next time but 1.25 it, it’s plenty. Add a bit of salt if you roast your own peanuts, like we did. It was really good and I look forward to tweeting the recipe to see if it comes out better on my end next time. Definitely a ‘do again’!!

I would add an extra tablespoon of brown sugar next time. It doesn’t smell very good, but it does taste good.

Boil the water for the Pad Thai while you start making the prawn and chicken! Then make the sauce as both are cooking (: It was annoying to finish the sauce, chicken, and shrimp first because then we had to wait for the water to boil and the Pad Thai to cook as well.
