I give Mama much credit, for this is possibly the boldest version I\u2019ve tasted in a long time. It\u2019s all about their take on the seasoning; whoever is in the kitchen has a style of their own.

It\u2019s usually served with a chicken curry sauce, but this version is rather different from any I\u2019ve experienced; its seasoning had overtones of Thai herbs and spices but still wasn\u2019t something one would immediately identify as Thai. In order to more firmly establish its culinary character, I\u2019ll return to have another go at it. This task will be a breeze since Mama\u2019s Kitchen is one of the stops on my new Elementary Elmhurst Ethnojunket (Shameless Self-Promotion Department \ud83d\ude09).
