Method

Place all ingredients for Pad Thai Sauce in a small pot and bring to a simmer, whisking periodically. Adjust seasoning as required.
In a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat add oil and beef. Once the beef is about 75% cooked, drain excess fat then add garlic, ginger, carrots, peppers, bean sprouts and green onion.
When vegetables are cooked, but retain a slight crunch add Pad Thai Sauce and noodles. Toss to combine and coat evenly with sauce. Adjust seasoning and add additional water as required. (Noodles should be well sauced)
Plate Pad Thai and garnish with desired toppings such as fresh bean sprouts, slivered green onion, crushed peanuts, chopped cilantro and lime wedges.
