INSTRUCTIONS

My friend Lisa made this up and it's great.  You can substitute ground
turkey, or rinse the ground beef, or certainly use much less meat.  Also
you may want to experiment with the fish sauce and lime juice amounts, this
is a very strong flavored dish and can be very salty depending on your fish
sauce. Also we like it best with regular noodles, smallish flat ones.
Put a large pot of water on to boil for the noodles.  Brown the ground beef
in a wok and strain off the fat.  Turn off the heat for now.  When the
water boils, add the noodles. Return the beef in the wok to high heat. Add
the garlic and toss continuously until the garlic becomes translucent
(about 2 minutes). Add all the remaining ingredients except the basil, and
continue tossing as the mixture cooks. When the noodles are done, dump them
into a colander to drain. Add the basil to the meat mixture, toss a few
times, and then add the noodles. Toss thoroughly and serve.

NOTES : Galangal is like ginger, you can get it cheap (ground, very
flavorful) in Asian groceries.  Or use ginger.  The fresh basil is very
important.
