The Thai romance continues : Phad Thai Noodles

Ok, no chit chat here, let me get straight to the point : The best Phad Thai Noodles I have ever had in India (of course) is at Malaka Spice in Pune. I have never found something similar anywhere. I then stumbled upon this recipe and I must say that it inspired me to make my own version of a Phad Thai and am I glad that I did!

Ingredients 

Flat Rice Noodles: 25o gms ( I know for sure cause I split a 500 gms pack into 2 equal parts and we had three decent portions)
