    yep, no lime leaves... As well there is no explanation how to cut/ peel lemongrass or how to make ginger nice and soft??

    i forgot to add, that as i didnt have lime leaves, i added lime zest of two lemon and it was a good replacement. i also put thin slices of lemon to decorate and add flavour to replace the lime leaves flavour. so being innovative is important. i replaced the corriender with basil as i didnt have them at home.

    i followed the recipee, didnt have the corriender but used basil instead, which was still good. The fish sauce is very strong, so took the advice to use only two table spoon. thanks for the recipee, it was fun..

    Seems like authentic Asian people have said too much fish sauce! Is the recipe correct as is? I am so confused. I will sit in the corner until you tell me what to do.
