Very quick and yummy! I went back and forth with trying to decide if it needed more peanut butter for a more robust peanutty taste, but finally decided that for the first time I would make it as instructed. Increasing the PB is probably something I will try in the future. Next time I also look forward to having it with noodles and adding some colorful veggies.

    Once in a rare while a recipe will come along which exactly meets the standards of the most discriminating of your tastebuds. This is such a recipe! It was quite straight forward to make and a joy to eat. I was torn between wanting to stay at the table to eat more or rush back to the kitchen to get another batch started so that when I finished eating the first I wouldn't have to wait for the next batch. My advice to folks contemplating making this recipe would be to double the recipe right up front. Serve your favorite Pad Thai Noodle recipe along with this dish and your reputation will be made. Thanks, ShannonBecker!!

    Excellent and very easy recipe. I used Patak hot curry paste. I also added 1/4 cup shredded coconut to the sauce. I didn't use the cornstarch because the sauce was thick enough without it. I served this with rice cooked with mixed vegetables and raisins and naan bread. I make this at least twice a month. Thanks for a great recipe. Rita
