                        -OR-
     1/2   lb           -Mixed vegetables,
                        - (see note below)
   2                    -to
   6       sm           Red chile peppers
     1/2                Stalk fresh lemon grass
   2                    Kaffir lime leaves
   2       tb           Oil
     1/2   c            Coconut milk
     1/2   ts           Salt
   1                    -to
   4       tb           Fish sauce,
                        - based on personal taste
                        - (omit for veggie version)
  10                    -to
  15                    Basil leaves
   1       c            Chopped cabbage

  Thinly cut chicken into 2-inch strips.  (If doing veggie version, cut
  vegetables into thin strips.) Grind together red chili peppers, lemon
  grass, and kaffir lime leaves in a food processor or pound in a mortar.
  Heat oil to medium-high and saute pepper mixture for 3 minutes.  Stir in
  coconut milk and cook for 2 minutes.  Add chicken (or vegetables) and cook
  for 5 minutes or until cooked (same time for veggies).  Reduce heat to
  medium-low.  Stir in fish sauce (if using), salt, and basil.  Serve on a
  bed of chopped cabbage.
  
  Note: ÿÿFor mixed vegetables, choose from among bell peppers, string
  beans, water chestnuts, tomatoes (small cherry tomatoes are best), bamboo
  shoots, miniature corn, asparagus, cucumbers, zucchini, Japanese eggplant,
  and mushrooms.  I particularly like string beans or asparagus, a few cherry
  tomatoes, shredded (rather than sliced) bamboo shoots, miniature corn, and
  some straw mushrooms or slender (Japanese) eggplant.
