If you like Pad Thai you will love this. If you love Thai curries, you will love this even more. It's not really that spicy, so add chopped Thai chiles if you like it more hot. It makes a ton, so invite a few of your friends over and have a martial arts film fest. Everybody will be so happy.

This dish is a bit spicy, but I love that. If you don't like spicy food, you can always reduce the amount of chili peppers.
