  1. I wish I could review this properly, but it was inedible as written. Way too much chili paste and powder. When I read "2 tablespoons chili paste" I thought "Wow, thats a lot" and I put 1 tablespoon, which still was overpowering. Then I added the chili powder, which it was not mentioned until the end of the recipe that it was optional! You can imagine how hot it would have been had I added the entire 2 tablespoons chili paste but Im afraid the table spoon each of paste and powder was still too much! I tried to submit a recipe correction to recipezaaer, because I think it should say 2 teaspoons chilipaste, but for whatever reason it wasnt accepted.
     
  2. Delicious! and easy to make, it tastes very much like the one served at the Indo Cafe, here in Los Angeles. Thanks for posting this; now I can make it at home.

my flickr page: http://flickr.com/photos/tunasushi Hey there! Thanks for stopping by to look @ my profile :) I'll be 15 on the 11th of September 2006....Ive been using Zaar for quite a while now and I've made tons of friends so far...... I started cooking when I was umm....12 and a half and Ive been in love with it ever since...My first project was the classic batch of brownies. I used a pan that was too big and I got really really flat brownies.....For the frosting I used granulated sugar and had crunchy frosting haha..... Ive gotten much better since then! I tend to get discouraged very easily if something I make does not come out like it was expected to....I can even get depressed over it..... I have plans on going to Le Courdon Bleu Sydney in mid 2008 and completing the Grand Diploma there...... This is my cat Kiara. I found her in the backyard when I was 10, and I started feeding her toast and grape jelly. She's on a normal cat's diet now haha. <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c76/tunasushi/kiaraaaa.jpg" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"> This is Pluto, and sadly he went missing just before Christmas.... <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c76/tunasushi/PlutO.jpg" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"> The small pic is when I was 4, and the other is a recent pic :) <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c76/tunasushi/ff.jpg" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"> <img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c76/tunasushi/meme.jpg" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"> Lookin a bit mad...hehe
