4-Ingredient Pad Thai Noodles
This is a stripped-down pad thai that captures the essential character of the dish without requiring 15 ingredients and a trip to a specialty store. It won't win any competitions, but it will get dinner on the table on a Tuesday night when you have rice noodles, eggs, fish sauce, and sugar.
What You Need
- 200g rice noodles
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- bean sprouts and lime to serve
How to Make It

Soak rice noodles in cold water for 30 minutes until pliable. Drain.

Crack eggs into the empty side and scramble until just set — about 30 seconds. Fold into the noodles. Add fish sauce and sugar, toss everything together over high heat for 2 more minutes. Serve topped with bean sprouts and lime wedges.
