I followed this recipe mostly as written, with minor subsitutions as was needed- with a 13 month old, you don't go to the grocery store twice in one day if you don't need to! I therefore subsituted limeade for the orange juice (had it in the fridge) and omitted the bell peppers. I also randomly dumped (cough cough- no measuring) red pepper flakes in instead of the cayenne pepper. The result was absolutely fabulous! We will keep this recipe on hand for a quick and easy peanut-Thai fix, for sure! Thanks for posting it! -
Really liked this dish. Nice subtle flavours. Loved the sauce. So easy to make too. I will try more cayenne pepper next time when I am not sharing it with the kids.
