  2. beet - 1/2 (julienned)
  3. bean sprouts - watch the video to see
  4. frozen tofu - watch the video to see (pressed, can use non-frozen or meat as alternative)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Julienne the beet. If using frozen tofu, thaw it; if using meat, prepare it as desired.

  3. Sauté Beets: In a pan, sauté the julienned beets until tender. This replaces the garlic chives in the traditional recipe.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Add the bean sprouts, tofu or meat to the pan with the beets. Pour in the Pad Thai sauce and mix well.
  5. Add Noodles: Finally, add the cooked noodles to the pan, mixing thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated with the sauce and combined with the other ingredients.
