This is one of our favorites. I make it when I visit my beach house in Thailand. All the fresh ingredients are readily available in the wet market and it is easy to put together. We've add a few shakes of Tobasco sauce and spicy tomato sauce to give it just a bit more flavor. It gets better as left overs.
