I followed it exactly and found it to be just too rich. Maybe, if ever I were to try it again, I would use natural peanut butter, as that cooks better. The recipe is so easy to prepare and I bet in a crunch you could use pre-packaged meatballs. I will surely use the tip about refrigerated the coconut milk on other dishes- it works great.Annhttp://www.creditcardspecialist.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-43523909094273434472011-05-15T20:05:18.019-07:002011-05-15T20:05:18.019-07:00My husband is a Marine, and he has been away at a ...My husband is a Marine, and he has been away at a school during the weeks.

I traveled to two different stores and could not find the chili paste. I used red curry paste instead. I like alot of heat, but know others aren't as adventurous as me, so held back.
