I had to modify the hoisin & dry sherry because I didn’t have them, but it tasted pretty good. Look forward to trying with proper ingredients.

Everyone loved it, but adding veggies next time.

Nice, but too heavy on the soy and not enough garlic.

Excellent! Yummy. I didn’t have sherry so I just added oil to the cornstarch. I don’t like ginger so I left that out. I subbed Korean bbq sauce for hoisin, added green beans and put it over cauliflower rice, excellent!

good recipe. i added oyster sauce for a bit more flavor.

Hi 4 years ago

This stuff is AWESOME! Wife and kids loved it, too. I didn’t have starch and read the recipe wrong - ended up using 2 tablespoons of flour instead of 2 teaspoons of starch. I used ground ginger (instead of fresh grated) and 2 teaspoons of minced garlic (which got left in) instead of a clove of garlic that gets removed. We really liked it, it wasn’t hard to make, and it didn’t take long. This will be a staple in our menu - low carb or not.
