Hi Ariane! I'm new to newsgroups and have a little problem navigating
the threads. I posted the recipe for dry laksa somewhere but not sure
whether I posted in the right thread :P Do you do much asian cooking?
It must be really difficult to get all the "asian" ingredients if
you're not living in this part of the world.
