I've been visting Thailand for nearly 30 years and the food has changed over that time to more suit the Western pallet. After making this version of Pad Thai, it was like the scene from the movie "Ratatouille" where the food critic was whisked back into his chilhood memories. This is how I remember Pad Thai being on my first visit to Thailand. This video is now in my permanent library. I've been able to source all the ingredients from the local Vietnamese store here in Chesterfield UK all except the sweet radish but that was never part of my original experience.

Hi! I tried this recipe and it is absolutely DELICIOUS. I’ve been buying pad thai from restaurants before I decided to make them myself. I’m glad I found your recipe, it’s even better than the ones I buy from the restaurant. I’ve also made it for other people, and they tell me that it’s absolutely delicious.

On a side note, since I couldn’t find some of the ingredients you have here in the Philippines, these are the changes I made:

-Spring onion instead of chives
-Skipped the preserve raddish (it’s still good!)
-White sugar instead of palm sugar, and also added one tbsp on top of two
-Cayenne pepper to spice it up
-Since I used dried rice noodles, I soaked it in boiling water for around 3-5mins
-Calamansi instead of lemon

The tamarind concentrate was the hardest to find, but I found it online regardless.

I rate this recipe 10/10. Thank you!

I'm Thai, and I'm here to insist this recipe is real! Yeah! Try it everyone. You can't miss this recipe.

I made this tonight and it was incredible! I will never eat takeout again now that I know how easy it is to make Asian food. Not to mention it tastes so much better! You're the best Seonkyong!

I am a Pad Thai fanatic and this recipe is awesome! I lived in Australia for 14 years and had the most amazing Thai, Malay, Indonesian food that I dearly miss. It took me a few tries to find all the ingredients in my area, but it was so worth it! Thank you Seonkyoung, fantastic job!

I am Thai and your Pad Thai Recipe is very good, similar to the original recipe. You understand this recipe wisely. I will follow your channel for sure.

Thank you for this amazing recipe! I made only a few changes but only because I'm vegan. Instead of chicken, shrimp and tofu I did mixed vegetables and I used a vegan fish sauce replacement. Still tasted wonderful!! Thanks again for all the time you put in to sharing this with us.

[artitayaandersen]

I am a Thai admiring your way of making PhadThai.

[wanitaseraaj]

Seonkyoung, this is the second time I have made Pad Thai using your recipe. It is absolutely the best. My son says it is "beautiful". I added yellow and orange bell peppers to the red ones for additional color but it is still excellent. Thanks so much I love your channel. Wahidah

[jessicar]

I love how Asian cuisines always come with loads of fresh sides and sauces, great food!!

[cjackson]

This is the best Pad Thai ever! I make this all the time now, everyone loves when I make this dish. This recipe tastes better than the restaurants. Seonkyoung thank you for sharing your recipes with the world☺

Our family lived in Chiangmai for 15 years and found the best pad thai in all of Thailand. This recipe is as real as it gets. You rock Seonkyoung. Yummy yummy.

[claudiahobgood]

Me and my wife are Pakistani and we really like Thai food. My wife introduced me to pad Thai at a restaurant in the US, and I have been a fan ever since. I have since moved out from the US and now across the border. we were looking for a great pad Thai recipe that would be restaurant grade. Today my wife tried this recipe at home, and we were blown away as to how good it is. It is as good l, if not better than most of the restaurants we've tried in North America. Many thanks for putting this up and I would highly recommend people watching this to try this recipe if they want restaurant grade pad Thai at home.

I’m a Filipina but I love so much the food of Thai ...I love Thailand The massage, the food and the people are so friendly and helpful also ...

[alexxchavezee]

I've watched so many recipes on Pad Thai, and this is definitely my favorite!

[lingyitong]

Tried the recipe, very impressive. Here are some personal advice. 1. 4oz of noddle is not enough! It was so delicious and the noddle were gone after three bites, lol. 2. I used tamarind paste instead of concentrate, and I totally prefer tamarind paste. 3. You need to soak dried rice noddle in hot water, preferably boiling water, till it's totally soft, otherwise it may remain too chewy. 4. You can totally modify proportion of sauces to meet your personally flavor, for example, I reduced the sugar. 5. Pressed tofu is the best! Probably for non-Asians it is not a big deal, but for us, we take tofu seriously : P
