'Pad kee mao', also known as 'Drunken Noodles' for its reputation as an ideal hangover remedy, is a deeply flavorful, satisfying Thai dish made from rice noodles, meat, and vegetables in a savory, sweet, and spicy sauce. We use more pantry and DIY-friendly ingredients in this recipe to replicate the savory, sweet, and slightly bitter flavor of the traditional Thai sweet sauce, which usually consists of more difficult-to-find ingredients. But be careful - the Thai chile peppers are HOT!

Enjoy, Wisconsinites!
