This is an unusual, super tasty, easy to cook dish. But it really needs double the glaze/sauce as other comments reflect. Kaffir lime leaves are a tasty addition. I made this for a friend who is a professional chef and he loved it.
Loved this and used it as a side. Rice on the bottom, veggies on the top, topped with a piece of grilled Steelhead trout (for those in my family who need a protein like this) drizzled glaze over the top, YUM! I made 50% more glaze to be sure to have enough to drizzle. It’s another keeper. Thank you!
This was delicious! I had yellow curry paste so I used that. Corn & green peas for edamame. And the first batch of green beans fresh from the garden!
Super delicious meal! I also subbed almond butter for peanut butter and added a touch of agave. I also added some orange pepper (the spice blend from Badia) and thought it was really good!
Really good and unique flavor! I’m a real sauce lover so I’d recommend doubling the sauce. I subbed Sunflower Seed Butter for Peanut Butter because of allergies and it was great. I didn’t have cauliflower so I just did full rice. Thanks for the recipe!
Thanks for the tip about doubling the sauce!
