Pad Thai

Pad Thai is a popular dish in Thailand, made from stir-fried rice noodles with eggs, tofu, and a variety of other ingredients such as peanuts, bean sprouts, and tamarind sauce. It is usually garnished with lime wedges, crushed peanuts, and chilis. Pad Thai is often served as a main dish at both Thai restaurants and food stalls, and is also a popular street food in Thailand.
