Made this with "General Tso's Tofu" (vegan version)... substituted a tiny bit of soy sauce for the fish sauce. Came out really well. Next time, I'll double the recipe and use leftovers for a stirfry/fried rice.

    We both enjoyed the combination of bok choy and mushrooms here and it was an easy dish to prepare ahead and then bring together quite quickly. I don't think you need all that chicken stock though. I was up to step 5 and just about ready to add the stock when I had to go answer the phone. Left my husband in charge and he just dumped in the whole 1/2 cup chicken stock. We had bok choy soup as a result! I think 2-3 tablespoons of water just to keep things from burning would be sufficient.

    this tasted like it was right from a chinese restaurant (and i mean that in a good way lol). i did not add as much stock as the recipe called for. even so, my bok choy threw off a lot of moisture, so i added a cornstarch/water slurry, which thickened the broth and helped keep all the flavors from just running off.

    This is a simple and tasty side dish. It's a great combination . The fish sauce really does add lots of flavor. I read the previous reviews and only used 1/4 cup of chicken stock, and that seemed to be just enough. I will make this again; thanx!
