A simple dish that is so delicious.  The fresh ginger and the red pepper flakes give it a smooth kick!  Remember the best way to store ginger is to peel it, cut it into one-inch cubes and immerse in dry sherry in a plastic container.  It will keep for a few weeks in the refrigerator and it will keep that sweet sherry flavor!  Enjoy!
