East meets West. I thought this was great. I had to re-do this dish because it tasted so good and I wasn't happy with my "fine slicing". The second time around, I just put it in the mini-chopper and it was lovely. My parents recently asked if I was coming across any good recipes and I had to tell them about this!
Just so you know, the lime and the coconut milk was a strange combination that tasted like heaven!
