"This recipe should actually have noodles in it, but my hubby and I are both watching our carb intake at the moment, so I omitted them and added some more meat and bean sprouts. I suppose this is more of a Pad Thai dish, if you decide to add noodles, I would cut the meat back to about 200g, only about 150g on the bean sprouts and about 200g on the prawns, as what I have listed below would be just too much if adding noodles."

Another Flying Chef winner! Other than using thinly sliced pork as did Chef on The Coast I made as posted (didn't have the minced pork on hand) we loved this combination and already looking to a repeat! That it's so easy to make is worth another five! Looked fantastic served on a white platter. My collection of the white serving dishes often seen in your photos is growing - getting to be an addiction! A recipenap for the Auz/NZ Swap.

A very tasty recipe! I was a little apprehensive not knowing the "spicy/hot" factor. I only did half of the chili-garlic sauce. It was spicy/hot but not more than I could handle. We liked the flavor and our out of town guests picked it as their favorite over the other two chinese dishes we had! I wasn't sure what kind of bean sprouts you used - probably should have asked - but ended up going with fresh sprouts from the produce section. I used thinly sliced pork loins instead of ground pork. It worked very nicely. I added extra veggies and we served this over rice pilaf. Made for the April 2009 Aussie/NZ recipe swap.
