Hi boys and girls! Recently I exchanged a soup recipe with a forum member here and he proposed that I should start a thread about recipes. And it got me thinking. It's a super idea! So without further due, here is my first recipe that I'd like to share with you! Feel free to try it and share your own recipes with other forum members!

I've got a big mushroom for you, Stou.... I mean, I like to make Thai curry too. And it does take courage to add the fish sauce! But it's an essential part of the flavor. I don't put soy sauce and wouldn't have thought to put oyster sauce with the fish sauce already there, though. I've found it's also good to add some lime juice.
