Carroodles with Pad Thai Sauce
I love love the classic pad thai and all the aromatics that comes with it. So, I decided to re-create a noodle-free version! That’s how I found out about carroodles. Carroodles is just another name for carrot noodles. It is made by using a vegetable peeler, peeling along the length of the carrot to make a noodle effect. For this recipe, I didn’t use tamarind or fish sauce the main ingredients of the traditional pad thai. Instead, I came up with something special that will go really well with the carroodles. I was amazed how a vegetable can easily turn into a fettucine-like noodles and taste that good! It’s fun to make and it extremely satisfying. Hands down this is the best healthy caroodle pad thai you can ever make right at your home.
