NOTES:

  1. Chilis:

      Around here we all use Red Fresnos, but Holland Red or similar medium hot chilis are fine. For details see our Thai Chilis page.

  2. Straw Mushrooms:

      Weight given is for drained mushrooms. These come in 15 oz net cans holding about 7.4 oz drained. They can be in two forms, "peeled" and "unpeeled". Use your own preference as to exact quantity and shape. For details see our Straw Mushrooms page.
  3. U.S. measure: t=teaspoon, T=Tablespoon, c=cup, qt=quart, oz=ounce, #=pound, cl=clove in=inch, ar=as required tt=to taste
