This was tonight's dinner. It was quick to put together, once the shrimp
were defrosted, and very good. I wish I had made double the recipe. I wanted
more.

Serving Ideas : white rice w/sesame oil
NOTES : Risa's notes:
* I used already cooked asparagus so I just cut it in 1" pc, diagonally, and
cooked it for a lot less time.
** Buy Lan Chi brand. It comes in a small jar. The best one is Chile Paste
with Garlic. You can find it in oriental markets or online.
