Simple, quick and delicious. I liked the fact that the flavors were uncomplicated which allowed me to match it well with an Asian marinated pork chop. I used the water in preparation and cut the oil a bit as I was using a non-stick wok. Thanks Mama.

    This is wonderful! I added 2 cloves chopped garlic and some red pepper flakes for heat. Used red pepper and it was great!

    Quick and very easy! I did add fresh grated ginger and used soy in place of the salt!
