What they say...

Viriya S.

Quick and easy to make. Perfect when I don't really feel like cooking.

Sesilia N.

This is really yummy. The reviews weren't lying when they said it's really easy to make.

For someone who can't cook, this recipe is a bit oversimplified and I had to struggle for a bit. This isn't really for beginners but for people who can cook but is lazy to.
