Kung to the POW!
Of everything I cook, this is my wife's absolute favorite dish and one of mine as well - but it's kicked up to a new level now with this Ghost Scream Chile Paste. I've always used good old Huy Fong Chili Garlic Paste and it still turns out nicely spicy and definitely more tolerable for a mixed crowd.
