Cooking Notes
My husband and I cook fairly delicious meals at home every night. Seldom do we look at each other and say, "This is terrible."
Ingredients coated with five-spice powder should be grilled or sauteed, not simmered. Otherwise, the taste is too raw.
Awful recipe.
Tasty. Easy and quick to make. I like this recipe and will save it to make again.
I have been making the recipe for years since I cut it out of the newspaper (!) back in 1995. I have made it for guests and family. It is simple and very easy.
