A local Thai restaurant has a similar dish using ground beef – one of our favorite dishes at their place. I made this using ground beef and it was awesome and simple. I totally failed at the homemade rice noodles but luckily had some dried ones on hand. We making again tonight with fresh noodles we found at our Asian Market. Thanks for this recipe, although if I learn everything our favorite place serves I may not get to go out to eat as often 😄
