18 Reviews of Sesame Snow Peas

These were so easy and fast to throw together and the flavor was delicious. We found it a bit too oily for our taste though--this will be easily fixed by cutting back on the oil next time. I also thought the "sauce" even more delicious on the carrots than on the snow peas, so I may make this sometimes with carrots alone. Thanks Nimz for a keeper!

    Excellent recipe! The flavour of the snow peas is enhanced but not overpowered by the sesame oil, ginger and soy sauce. The directions are clear and the cook time of 4 minutes is right on the money. I used fresh ginger, finely chopped red onion and regular sesame oil (thought I had dark but was out of it). I reduced the vegetable oil to 1 teaspoon and may reduce it even further next time. Wonderful flavour and I'll be making this again. Thanks, Nimz!

    this was nice. I did add some mushrooms to this (we love mushrooms)and it cooked up nicely. I did use more fresh ginger than called for and didn't hurt the dish any. Fresh ginger has wonderful health benefits so I use it as often as I can. Thanks Nimz.

    This was wonderful! Unfortunately, I didn't have sesame oil so I just used canola. I threw the sesame seeds in with the vegetables to toast them. Thank you so much!!

    This is really good! I added just some garlic (I must have garlic!) & then served it atop steamed rice w/oriental chicken wings. Yummo Nimz! As good as it is as a stand alone dish, I think it would also be excellent as a base for shrimp w/snow peas. Just add some garlic & mushrooms - Voila! I can hardly wait. Thx for sharing this one w/us.

    Mmmm, a lovely dish that I really enjoyed for lunch! I added a little more soy sauce, along with some salt. Thanks!

    perfect. Cooked them a little longer, with a little chicken stock, oldies dont like "crisp" turned out really well, full flavour, and not too oily. my sister (who looks at everything on her fork...twice)had an extra helping, thats worth another 5 points I reckon

    Oh YUM!! I had a feeling we would love this recipe- and we did.... the only thing I did differently was to omit the carrots. This is now a "regular" for us. Thanks, Nimz!
