First of all, I am seriously unable to follow a recipe. I start off with good intentions and then I randomly grab things off the shelf and throw them in too (and maybe substitute random things because my pantry never has the things I need). I just go crazy! And forget about amounts! I just put in whatever feels right. I think perhaps I am a born chef who just doesnʻt make very good food

In any case, the food looked great, smelled awesome and tasted.... blah. it was not very good at all. We had no ginger, so that was lacking, it was a really easy and not very exciting recipe in the first place, and I realized that I forgot to add water, and I think I simmered it too high and reduced the coconut milk to almost nothing.

In other words, I was really disappointed. I had such high hopes *sigh*
aw ! well don't give up, take it as a learning experience ! as for your methods, that's how i cook too, and maybe it takes a bit of practice but i've found you can get some very good results that way. (just don't forget the ginger and the water next time ).
