It had a nice flavor from the pepper and ginger but it was a little too plane for me.

This in one of my favorite recipes. I tried this in an Indian restaurant and it was really yummy! So I came to all recipes and this one fits really nice. I also serve this with rice (spanish works well) and I also added some cabbage to mine! Totally yummy indian recipe! Try it!

I made several mistakes with this recipe. My pepper grinder broke so I tried to use a mortar and pestle to grind the peppercorns. That's not a great idea, let me tell you. My peppercorns stayed virtually whole so I had to pick them out while I ate it. That would of course be my fault, and not the recipe. I used one serrano and tasted it. IT WAS HOT! To save the meal, I threw in a can of light coconut milk (my cure-all for asian recipes that get to spicy). It was very tasty. Next time I'll have a pepper grinder that works and I'll start with less hot pepper. Of course, it was quite so delicious that I may add the coconut milk anyway.
