This classic dish from Thai cuisine is based on rice noodles but has a unique and original twist with crispy lettuce. Accompanied by a delicious tamarind sauce with a hint of lime.
Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
For the sauce, in a small pot over medium heat, heat the fish sauce, sugar, tamarind concentrate, and garlic. Cook for about 3 minutes or until the sugar has dissolved. Set aside.
In a wok or deep skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil and fry the meat for about 5 minutes or until cooked. Remove the meat and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the rest of the oil and cook the onion until translucent. Add the garlic and rice noodles along with some of the sauce. Cook for a few minutes.
Add the meat and beaten eggs, cook for 3 minutes. Add the carrots, green onion stalks, sprouts, and Italian Eva® lettuce, cook for about 4 minutes and mix very well.
Add the rest of the sauce and the peanuts and cook for a few more minutes. Serve with lime wedges.
