What a sensational side dish! This packs some heat. It's nice and spicy, just the way we like it! I cut the recipe in half and it made enough for 4 people. So we get leftovers. Every once in a while you get a surprise by tasting the ginger. I served it warm and used the oven method only because I didn't want to start up the grill. Thanks for posting. :)
