    I tried this last night and it's fabulous. We like spicy food and this was just right. I buy and peel about a pound of ginger at a time, then put it in the food processor until really minced up. Wrap it up in a long thin roll in plastic and it freezes well; then you will always have fresh ginger! - 4/7/08

    oh my, this recipe was everything I ever want ... very flavourful, quick and easy. I'm going to dice and freeze the rest of my green tomatoes so that I can make this dish again (and again & again). I used cod and served it w/brown rice, green beans & curried cabbage. I will also try it with tofu. - 10/12/08

    Looks good. Never seen green tomatoes for sale anywhere; but you can grow 'em in a pot, even if you live in an apartment! They are quite tart, very different from red, so if you're using red, consider increasing the vinegar/lime juice. - 6/26/08

    This recipe looks wonderful! I will make this, and will probably include garden-fresh cilantro. - 5/26/08

    Green Salsa can be purchased at almost any Grocery. You can any other ingredients you wish and this saves time for those on the run. - 10/2/09

    Family loved the dish. I would certainly make it again. - 4/8/08
  • DARUMA
    Yum! I didn't need to add any oil to make the paste - maybe because the ginger I used was pretty fresh and I grated it with a ginger grater. - 10/25/09

    Sounds good. Can't wait till we get some fresh tomatoes from the garden. And Denibar, what a great idea for always having fresh ginger! I'm going to try that too. - 6/26/08

    I'm going to try it with store-bought Thai curry paste. That should work the same, right? - 4/7/08
