Mix all the ingredients for Pad Thai sauce in a bowl. Set aside.

While the noodles are soaking, heat a heavy bottom pan or a wok over high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil.
Add shrimps to the pan and stir for about 2 minutes. The shrimps will start to change color and look pink. Remove from the pan to a bowl for later.
Beat two eggs with a pinch of salt. Add beaten eggs to the same pan. Toss eggs to until almost cooked and scrambled. Remove to a bowl for later.
Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the pan. Add minced garlic and cook (about 30 seconds) until it is fragrant.
Toss in red bell pepper and stir it for 30 seconds.
Add cooked shrimps back to the pan along with soaked rice noodles. scrambled eggs, bean sprouts, and half of the roasted peanuts.
Pour in the sauce and using tongs or a spatula toss until everything is combined.
Top with remaining roasted peanuts, chopped cilantro, and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
I like to use small shrimp for this recipe so there's a better noodle to shrimp ratio. Look for 51/60 or 41/50 size shrimp at the store.
