Delicious, and easy. Made per the recipe, but used ordinary button mushrooms and added red bell peppers. Will make again!.

This was by far one of the best recipes I have ever made. I had no idea what to expect & when I was finished I felt like a gourmet chef. Especially with asian food seeming like such a difficult feat, I was very surprised. The only thing I changed was using ginger powder. Otherwise follow it exactly & you are in for a treat
