Adopted this chef for PAC Fall 2007! Lucky me! This was great. Made exactly as written except I had to use regular basil as I could not access Thai basil in my area. :[ No matter, the taste was really good. Just enough heat and incredibly easy to make. I chopped everything ahead, which I would recommend, because this cooks up fast. It did not take me the full 45 minutes, more like 30 including the chopping. My husband does not like green or red peppers, but I did make it with them as I do not like to make changes the first go at a recipe! Next time I may replace some of them with broccoli to make him happy. Would very much recommend this quick, easy and delicious dish. Thanks! :)
