This is a page from a cookbook featuring a recipe titled 'CHICKEN WITH BASIL, CHILES, AND FISH SAUCE'. The recipe yields 4 servings with an active time of 30 minutes and a total time of 30 minutes. At the top of the page, there's a photograph of the finished dish: chicken stir-fry with basil and slices of red chiles in a bowl. The page includes sections on ingredients for the chicken, the sauce, and the stir-fry. It also has instructions for preparation and cooking, with a note explaining that the dish combines classic Thai flavors in a simple stir-fry that isn't particularly authentic to any specific Thai dish. The note suggests that measuring precisely isn't necessary and it's sufficient to adjust the ingredients 'as you go.' To the left of the recipe, there are steps labeled 'BEFORE YOU STIR-FRY, GET YOUR BOWLS READY' with sub-steps from (a) to (f) that include prepping garlic, chicken, ginger, sauce, basil leaves, and a serving platter. Below this, there are steps on how to execute the stir-fry process.

Acknowledging my current shortcomings, I am committed to working on expressing the diverse potential uses of computers for individuals with various interests and goals.
