Very tasty! I used 5 spice powder instead of the cinnamon and served over white rice instead of noodles. Otherwise I made as directed and it was really good. Thanks Kim.

This is comfort food with a delicious Asian accent! Simple and delicious with a soothing blend of flavors. I had some leftover browned ground beef on hand, so I used it in place of the stew meat, and since my ground cinnamon was hiding, I threw in a cinnamon stick. Since I didn't have to let the beef cook in the stew, this was on the table from start to finish in under 30 minutes. Thanks for a great meal, Derf!

Very delicious, and a big hit with the family! Served with brown rice and topped with spicy siracha. The sour-sweet was great, and a nice change in our dinner line-up.

this was very good...but, i think i just don't like bok choy - i got some from my CSA, so i tried a bunch of recipes, and this was by far the best one, but if i made it again, i'd make it without the bok choy

I really enjoyed tha flavor of this recipe. The cinnamon makes this dish a little different, but very good. The meat came out very, very tender. I served it over rice to soak up some of that extra liquid. Made a great meal, thanks. Made for Please Review My Recipe tage game 11/08.
