Mai's Pad Thai, Irving, TX, US.
This is a delicious recipe! It is not particularly low fat, since it has about 11 grams of fat per serving. However, the fat in this recipe is not animal fat and it is not hydrogenated as long as you use peanut butter that does not contain hydrogenated fat, i.e., "natural" peanut butter. This is a vegan recipe.
