    I've made many dishes from this website and loved them all. Apart from this one. There was very little taste and a waste of time. It all went in the bin. Try another dish, Prawn laska is so much nicer.

    I made this for some dinner guests and they all loved it. When they come back and ask for this dish again I think sayes it all.

    I got rid of the mint and added fresh basil instead. I find Basil goes with most fish dishes. Also I diced a fillet of whiting and soaked that in the lime juice for 1/2 hour. It worked well for me. I may try it with more fish & Orzo instead of the noodles next time

    Not bad, but not the most flavoursome dish. I don't eat chilli so added a bit of ginger to give it a kick.
