"At 9:30pm I decided that I wanted to eat mushrooms for dinner tonight. At 10:40pm, my parents and me were enjoying this wonderful meal to our heart's content. Mom and dad made my day when mom said she simply LOVED the colour of this dish and dad said he was proud of his girl.

Tried cooking this on my days off. First on Tuesday, then had to try again on Wednesday, and obviously needed more so again Thursday. Its soooo good. Very easy to cook. Very tasty. Perhaps a little too spicy for my tastes (too spicy and I react embarrasingly), so I just cut down a little on the spices. Great stuff - I'll be cooking it again when I have guests.
