You'll find this recipe easier than traditional Pad Thai recipes, and yet the taste is all there. Many of you are discovering that tamarind paste - a traditional ingredient in pad thai - is difficult to find. But I have learned in my travels that originally pad thai was made without tamarind (it didn't become part of the standard recipe until much later), hence this recipe made with lime juice instead of tamarind. Try it and see how easy and delicious pad thai can be.
