Simple, basic and delicious! Although I didnt show it in the photo, I did add some crab meat and spring onions, very versatile base recipe, so quick and easy. I didnt have cilantro so used some Thai Basil. Thank you James, this was made and enjoyed for Cooking Mania Tag Game

Easy to cook for someone who isn't a good cook. I added carrots, mushrooms, bean sprouts, too.

Excellent base recipe! I thought I'd need to add sriracha from the get-go, but it's definitely delicious on its own.
