• Sweet and sour chicken (Priaw waan kai)

    Wow. The recipe calls for only 15 ounces of chicken strips to be fried until light brown, but in 4 cups (32 ounces) of peanut or corn oil! After removing the chicken all but 1/3 cup of oil is used to stir fry the vegetables. I think that the 4 cups of oil is an error...4 tablespoons for a stir fry would be more than adequate. Even 1/3 of a cup of "leftover" oil is too much for the small amount of vegetables to be stir-fried. Since the recipe only serves 4 - 6, this is certainly not correct in terms of the amount of oil....unless you are deep frying an entire chicken and besides, this is a stir fry, not a deep fry!
