"Not Asian Food"

Submitted by WhatsShakinBacon

"My future husband affectionately calls this "Not Asian Food", as it was made in a pinch one day when we were both craving Thai food with very few ingredients in our cupboards. This is a VERY versatile recipe, and can be altered MANY ways to suit anyone and everyone's tastes. Whether it be a spice newbie who likes it mild, to someone who doesn't sweat at a 10-star Thai spicy soup, this is a simple recipe that can be enjoyed by all, and with minimal effort. You can add as many different vegetables, meats, or other ingredients as you like, and I encourage that you try new ones, as each will bring a unique new level to your own, personal "Not Asian Food". NOTE: This recipe is best prepared in a wok, and directions will be assuming you're using one."
