What is phat thai?

Phat Thai (also spelled Pad Thai) is a popular dish in Thai cuisine, made with stir-fried rice noodles, eggs, vegetables, and often either chicken, beef, or shrimp. The dish is seasoned with fish sauce, tamarind, and palm sugar, and is typically garnished with crushed peanuts, bean sprouts, and lime wedges. Phat Thai is known for its rich, savory, and slightly sweet flavor profile, and is a true staple of Thai street food culture. The dish is commonly found in restaurants and food stalls throughout Thailand, and is also popular in many other countries around the world.
