  1. Very flavorful. I cut the salt in half, used ground ginger, and peanut oil. We thought the peanut flavor was unusual, but very good. Served with some ribeye steaks. Made for Zaar Stars.
     
  2. Hubby loved it. Kids didnt. I used chunky peanut butter because I was out of creamy. Yumm!

  4. Very nice light Asian flavors. DH liked that it was not too spicy hot for his taste. Made as written. Thanks for the post.
     
  5. This was great! My whole family loves thai peanut flavors and this dish was no exception. It was gobbled up quickly and my DD's were asking for more. The only change I'd make is to make more next time. ;) I served this with fried tofu and brown rice for a healthy and delicious lunch! Made for 1 2 3 Tag.
