Steps:
- Make the sauce: Pour 1/4 cup boiling water over the brown sugar in a bowl and stir to dissolve. Add the lime juice, fish sauce, rice vinegar and Sriracha and stir to combine. Add the cooked turkey to the sauce and let it absorb the flavors while prepping the rest of the dish.
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook 1 minute less than the label directs. Drain and set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large sauté pan over high heat until very hot, almost smoking. Add the onion and stir-fry 1 minute. Add the garlic and stir, then add the eggs and cook for 30 seconds, stirring. Add the linguine and turkey (with the sauce) and cook, stirring, for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and toss in the grated carrot, peanuts, cilantro, bean sprouts and scallions. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:
- In a small bowl mix garlic, soy sauce, cilantro, honey, curry powder, sesame oil, cornstarch, crushed red pepper,and water until well blended.
- In a 10 inch skillet over high heat, warm the salad oil.
- Cook the green onions and red pepper, stirring frequently until the vegetables are tender and golden.
- Stir in liquid mixture and turkey meat and cook, stirring to coat turkey well, until heated through.
- Serve over cooked rice and garnish with more cilantro if you wish.
Tips:
- Use wide rice noodles. These noodles are more resistant to breaking and will hold up better in the stir-fry process.
- Soak the rice noodles before cooking. This will help to soften them and make them more pliable.
- Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet. This will help to prevent the noodles from sticking.
- Cook the noodles in batches. This will help to prevent them from clumping together.
- Stir-fry the noodles until they are just tender. Overcooked noodles will become mushy.
- Add the sauce to the noodles and stir-fry until they are evenly coated.
- Garnish the pad thai with peanuts, cilantro, and lime wedges.
