Another easy one for this week, but it was pretty tasty. This turned out to be filling, but a fairly light dish. Mel, you would like this one. I subbed sweet basil for the vietnamese corriender, but followed the recipe with everything else. I really loved the napa cabbage in this dish. It was crunchy, but not overwhelming. I really should use it more. My husband thought it was "too citrus-y". I told him that was the SOUR of the hot sour salty sweet so he needs to get used to it!

Somehow I missed this one and just went back to look up the recipe ... looks great ... nice find! Any of the grilled meat dishes I made this past weekend did not have an overwhelming citrusy taste to them. I think Mark would enjoy any of them. The beef does use lemongrass but I didn't think it was overpowering. The chicken had more of a pepper taste than cilantro taste and the sweet and sour sauce was really good with it. Report back if you try any of them!
Mmm, I finally looked up the recipe on this and it looks really good. I'm glad you mentioned using the sweet basil. I will try that. Still craving black bean soup though....
