This dish looks wonderfully tasty with a slant towards healthy which is the way I like to lean but do not always find the inclination.

Just curious.. why your pic came out with a lighter looking sauce or was there something different you used compared to what you had down.

Look for Golden Mountain soy sauce which is exactly what I use. It looks like this: http://grocerythai.com/images/33003.jpg
