Absolute Comfort Food!!!!
This dish was absolutely delicious, I had to change the peanut butter to cashew butter due to allergies, and changed the beef to lamb shanks. Absolutely perfect dish, kept getting better every single day reheating it. Absolutely moorish. Thank you!
Out of this world!
Marion dish was ‘other-worldly’. The depth of flavor made me savor each spoon and bite. The flavors took me a journey, the peanut butter, beef, fish sauce and vinegar on their own can be pungent flavors but they were actually layered – like she’d say “made friends”. Thoroughly enjoyed this!
delicious!
I followed the recipe but I used pressure cooked as I am a very busy person. Flavour turned out great! The additional ingredient I added on the recipe was the banana blossom (flower). Overall it was delicious. Salamat! (thank you!)
