GJ> DD> That would work as well. I have often said there is no such
GJ> DD> thing as too  much garlic.

GJ>I fully agree.  I have sometimes thought of leaving out the meat and
GJ>just cooking the garlic and sliced ginger.

You're just trying to get next to Connecticut Ruth who is a well known 
lover of all things ginger. Well, maybe not that ginger tom that's been 
knocking six bells out of her tabby ....

GJ>Crisp-fried garlic is a wonderful concentrated flavour item.  I used
GJ>to buy freshly fried peanuts from a street vendor in Manila, who
GJ>added garlic to the peanuts before frying, so if I was lucky I could
GJ>pick out the garlic and crunch it.

I shall have to keep an eye open for that. Sounds dandy.
