Although I haven't tried this yet I thought it sounded delicious with Asian grilled pork or chicken or mixed with leftover chicken or shrimp. Recipe source: Gourmet (June 2005)

This was good, but we felt it was missing something- maybe some chopped chilies for a touch of heat? For the herbs, I used cilantro, basil, and cress. I had to omit the peanuts, due to a nut issue. I love how easy this was to make, it was very simple to prepare while waiting for the rest of the meal to be ready. Perfect for a weeknight. Made for the Seasoned Sailor and his Sassy Sirens, ZWT6

I served this recipe on the side with Oriental Pork Tenderloin by Kymmarie. They went well together. I thought the flavor needed to be a little bolder, so I added some Sambal Oelek, and that did the trick. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
