    Title: Pad Thai, Rainbow Vegetarian With Peanuts And Basil
    Categories: Thai
    Yield: 4 Servings

    MMMMM----------------------------DISH---------------------------------
    4 oz Brown rice noodles
    1 Zucchini
    1 Red pepper
    1/2 Yellow onion
    2 Carrots
    2 tb Oil
    1 Egg; beaten
    1/2 c Peanuts; chopped
    1/2 c Fresh herbs like cilantro;
    -scallions, and basil,
    -chopped

    MMMMM---------------------------SAUCE--------------------------------
    3 tb Fish sauce; (or vegan "fish
    -sauce" from the hippy
    -store)
    3 tb Brown sugar
    3 tb Broth
    2 tb White vinegar
    1 tb Soy sauce
    1 ts Chili paste

    Place the uncooked noodles in a bowl of cold water to soak.

    Spiralize the carrots, onion, red pepper, and zucchini into
    noodle-like shapes. Not too long.

    Shake up the sauce ingredients in a jar.

    Heat a tablespoon of oil over medium high heat. Add the veggies--stir
    fry with tongs for 2-3 minutes or until tender-crisp. Be careful not
    to overcook them--or else they'll get soggy and heavy. Transfer to a
    dish and set aside.

    Add another tablespoon of oil into the pan. Drain the noodles--they
    shoud be softened by now. Add the noodles to the hot pan and stir fry
    for a minute, using tongs to toss. Add the sauce and stir fry for
    another minute or two, until the sauce is starting to thicken and
    stick to the noodles. Push the noodles aside to make a little room
    for the egg--pour the beaten egg into the pan and let it sit for 30
    seconds or so. Toss everything around with the tongs. The egg mixture
    will stick to the noodles and everything will start to get sticky.

    Add in the vegetables, toss together, and remove from heat. Stir in
    the peanuts and herbs and serve immediately.

    There is a fine line between the mixture being Just Right and TOO
    Sticky. Usually too sticky happens when you cook it too long. Watch
    it carefully and once you see it starting to come together, remove
    from heat right away and toss with veggies.
