Ever tried Tum muk hoong with muk tour, carrots and kow pooung? Now that is really good...but gotta be spicy! Man i'm hungry now. I like it with the crab sauce too.

Or you could try to tum kow pooung with cabbage. Yes put them together and tum.....it is really good. My sister-in-law got me into that. Should try it.

I posted this in my own thread, but maybe someone here can help me.

"I have a lot of Laos friends, and whenever they cook fish or chicken, they have this sauce this is extremely spicy.. it literally burns your tongue but it's so good that you just keep on eating it.

They told me it's called "gel" or "jel", atleast that's how it's pronounced but not sure if it's the proper spelling.

I know that the item has Thai Chilies in them and it's a clear liquid with the seeds floating around. At first taste, it's sweet/a little sour, but then right after the spicy kicks in and it burns. I'm pretty sure it also consists of lemon juice and some sugar for the first sweet and sour taste.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about or can help me on making this on my own? Is it a special Laos item or do other cultures make the same thing and I should post in their section? Please let me know asap as I want to make some for tomorrow. If you need any more info, please ask and I'll try to answer/clarify.

Thanks."
