This was dinner the other night. Use fresh chiles if
you have them instead of the chile paste. I love chile
paste and it is really hot YET my DH loves it too.

NOTES : Risa's notes:
* Tamari has no wheat in it, like regular soy sauce.
** If you cannot find chinese chile paste (found at
all oriental supermarkets and at some specialty
stores), you can use Asian chili oil or a tsp or so of
red chile flakes.
