Is it acceptable to have green onions and bean sprouts as the only vegetables in pad thai?

Making pad thai today and I could not think of any other vegetables that should go in it. Obviously I'll have peanuts and eggs and all the normal stuff in it.

The most foundational vegetable for pad Thai is bean sprouts, unless you count shallots/garlic.

Red bell pepper, some garlic, lime juice and cilantro are other standard additions to pad thai.

It's called coriander and it's in a lot of Asian dishes. Sichuan recipes especially use tons of it.

It's also known as Chinese parsley lol so that should give you a clue!

lolwut?

Why does coriander smell completely unlike cilantro???

:#marseyspecialpat:

:marseyreading:

In North America, cilantro refers to the leaves and stalks of the plant. The word “cilantro” is the Spanish name for coriander leaves. Meanwhile, the dried seeds of the plant are called coriander.

Internationally, it’s a different story. Coriander is the name for the leaves and stalks of the plant, while the dried seeds are called coriander seeds.

Ahhh, :marseygrad:

I didn't know that, Coriander to me is only the herb, I've never seen the seeds or used them in any recipe.

I know there's a nice Szechuan dish that uses it, basically beef with an absolute shitload of shredded chilli and coriander. It's obscenely hot.

It would be used as a garnish in the case of the pad thai, but yeah they definitely use it over there. They also have an equivalent that's a little stronger tasting called culantro.
