I bet it tasted wonderful. <br /><br />I forget where you are exactly at the Jersey shore, but did you hit the big Asian market on Rt. 1 in the Edison area? I go to one on Rt. 22 in Green Brook area and always struggle to communicate with the employees, but eventually find what I'm looking for. It's like a treasure hunt. LOL. AND I always find some extra goodies to sample ... just like you did with the mango jell-o! Fun!!! <br /><br />I use Chinese chili paste with garlic in a lot of dishes.. I wonder if I can use it in place of the Thai version with decent results. My husband would love your recipe. <br /><br />When the time comes to seek out Indian ingredients.. Oak Tree Road in Edison. ;)<br />Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00420773211895134710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-7242813170253520702012-10-20T12:37:23.174-04:002012-10-20T12:37:23.174-04:00This dish looks so colorful :) Good for you that y...This dish looks so colorful :) Good for you that you kept looking for the ingredient you needed :)Uniflamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08181945318301274101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-11301841622110499942012-10-20T12:25:17.639-04:002012-10-20T12:25:17.639-04:00Wow, you sure are industrious.

I love looking in supermarkets from other cultures and frequently find recipes with ingredients I've never heard of just as an excuse to go to one! I haven't heard of Nam Prik Pao before, but I think we use something similar called Thai sweet chilli sauce. I might try making this later in the week.
