In Windsor there is a delicious vegan restaurant that makes an amazing pad thai. After eating it enough times I decided I should try and recreate that vegan pad thai for myself. This recipe has crunch from all of those fresh veggies, and a savoury peanut sauce that perfectly coats all of the noodles and veggies.

Vegan Pad Thai is ready in under 20 minutes and leaves you feeling nourished after enjoying it. This recipe makes enough for one person. The measurements of veggies is completely up to you too, add more cucumbers or peppers to make it fit your taste. Rice noodles are a great ingredient in this recipe too since they are naturally gluten free!

Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup cucumber julienned
  • 1 Package of pad thai rice noodles
  • 1/3 cup of red cabbage shredded
  • 2 tbsp of peanuts
  • 1/2 of a red pepper
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • Lime for topping

Peanut Sauce

  • 2 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tsp tamari

Vegan Pad Thai

Tips & Tricks:

  • Picking Veggies: You can add any kind of veggies to this recipe you have around. Bell peppers of all colours will work nicely. Broccoli cut in small florets too.
  • Chopping Your Veggies: Chop your veggies into easy bite sized pieces. To save time i like to grate my carrots like cheese. This creates the perfect sized pieces to mix in. The cucumbers and peppers are best julienned (matchstick sized).
  • Sauce: When making the sauce I recommend microwaving the peanut butter before adding it to the mixture. This will help it incorporate seamlessly. Peanut butter sauces have a tendency to thicken quickly. add more water or soy sauce to loosen the sauce.
  • Gluten Free: To make this gluten free just replace soy sauce with coconut aminos.
