This is sooo bland. It needs something, some kind of spice. It would have fed atleast 4 people. I will not make this again, but some may like the very mild/bland taste.

Good recipe; instead of using a hard-boiled egg, i put in a beaten egg after I put all the ingredients in the pan. I'm still on the lookout for a "saucier" pad thai recipe.

Now this IS a great Asian dish! After soaking the rice noodles, this dish takes on minutes to make, I also added in 2 teaspoons dry chili flakes and some fresh garlic, very tasty, I love this dish! thanks Debs!...Kitten:)

YES!! Finally I can get the taste of the restaurant at home. I loved how simple and great tasting this was--for my taste I will increase the paprika next time, but we all really loved it. Ohh- I put in cooked noodles due to time and it still turned out great-- thanks for the great recipe!!
