The Beginning of Something Hot

We went to the Asian grocery store over the weekend to get some food stuff.  We happened upon this wonderful pile of green finger chili.  Thoughts of "Bicol Express" came to mind immediately! 

It is simply sauteed pork meat with coconut milk , shrimp paste and chili peppers.  And lots of it in my recipe!  The hotter, the better!
