Steps:
- Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Strain, rinse with cold water, drain well and reserve.
- While the noodles are soaking, make the sauce for the pad thai. Whisk together the honey, tamarind concentrate, fish sauce and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Preheat a wok over high heat. Gather all the mise en place for the dish in the order you will add the ingredients to the wok.
- Add 1 tablespoon of peanut oil to the hot wok, swirling from the top. Add the garlic, carrots and scallions and cook for 30 seconds, tossing with a wooden spatula. Add the cabbage and bok choy. Cook, tossing for 1 minute.
- Push everything to the sides of the wok, leaving an empty space in the center. Add another drizzle of oil if needed, then add the beaten eggs and scramble with a wooden spatula. Toss everything together.
- Add the noodles, reserved sauce, red pepper and bean sprouts. Toss to combine and cook until the sauce thickens to a syrupy texture, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large serving platter. Garnish with peanuts, cilantro and lime wedges.
