This was absolutely excellent. One of my favorite recipes I’ve made ever. I doubled most of the ingredients for the sauce, per the previous comments - but used the original amount of vinegar. I substituted tamarind for a tablespoon of brown sugar plus a generous amount of lime juice. I used red pad Thai rice noodles rather than the white rice noodles, but they worked perfectly. I appreciate the previous comments and recipe recommendation it to just soak the noodles in water rather than boil them as the package had stated. I made the noodles in advance and tossed them in a colander with cold water, patted them dry, and then hand massaged a little bit of peanut oil to keep them separated and easy to use when it was time.

Wow!! Followed the recipe to a T. Absolutely excellent!
