Sensational dish. Limes have been $1.50 each lately. When I managed to buy four for the price of one, I chose this as a worthy recipe (Bill Granger knows his food). Lucky me, crab was on special too. The combination of flavours is absolutely perfect. I used 30 grinds of pepper and thin egg noodles. It really was ready within 20 minutes. I look forward to trying some of the suggested variations. Thanks for a real winner.
