Pad Thai with shrimp. Recipe for a romantic dinner

Thai cuisine is a great idea for a culinary journey to faraway Asia that you can take with the help of your own kitchen. Here is an easy recipe for Pad Thai with shrimp.

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 100 g rice noodles;

• 5 tablespoons fish sauce
• 1/2 tsp peanut butter;

Peel the shrimp, cut and remove the intestine. Cook rice noodles (half hard – they will soften later in the pan). Mix all the ingredients for the sauce and let it sit for about 30 minutes. Slice the onion and bell bell pepper. Crush the nuts and roast them on a dry frying pan. Set aside. Pour oil into a wok, squeeze garlic through a press and add peppers.
