Pad Thai - a shortcut that works

In my search for getting that authentic taste out of real ingredients that make up traditional dishes I have always managed to fail when it comes Pad Thai. The pad thai I used to eat in Nong Khai in Thailand was exquisite but I never learned to make it from my neighbours during the brief time that I was living there. Recipes on the web and in books never seemed to come even remotely close to what I wanted.
I did however have a massive craving for pad thai recently but as it was late on a Sunday I did not have all of the ingredients - this however I think will surprise you enormously - you don't actually need the thousand and one hard to find ingredients. Have a look at this.
