"This sounds simple but it is elegant and fun. If you like curry, you will like this. The recipe comes from a missionary's daughter who grew up in Burma. When she came back to the United States she had to adapt it to what we had here. In Burma the people would eat mostly rice and if they had anything to go along with it they were fortunate. She said that this is like a banquet meal for them. These flavors blend nicely together. Have some people in and have this meal. You put everything out in a row and they go through the line and build their meal on their plate. Make sure you put plenty of lemon juice over all as this is what I think, makes it taste so good. Fun!"
