a helpful tip for those about to embark upon a journey of mastering stir-fried vegetables & tofu, thai style -
a trap for new players:
when the recipe book says X tablespoons of vegetable stock,
it means vegetable stock dissolved in water (at a ratio of about 1 teaspoon to 1 cup),
NOT
X tablespoons of straight, dry vegetable stock powder!

i worked hard at that dish - fish sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, etc., etc.; and was eagerly anticipating savouring the 'PAAD PAK', but upon chewing my second mouthful i discovered the folly of my ways ...
SALTY!!!

couldn't finish it ... a tragedy ... i'll get it right next time, then it'll be 'AROY'!
