    Delicious - loved the ginger/garlic taste and had just the right amount of heat. Took it to a church potluck and came home with an empty pot. Left out the splenda. - 3/12/11

    This dish is super tasty AND healthy! I like the spice that gives it a little bit of a bite. It was so good that I couldn't help but kiss the cook! - 4/20/09
