Just made this today and immediately had to leave my review...a delicious combination that's sweet, tart & spicy! I added zucchini because I add extra veggies to everything I make...but I'd also like to try using broccoli, snow peas, etc.! I do think I'd cut back by about half on the sugar, don't think it needed to be quite as sweet (at least for me). Will be having guests soon and I think they'll love this as much as I do.

I've been making Asian food for 20 years, and this is one of easiest and tastiest recipes ever! I followed the recipe exactly, but we added Sambal Olek while eating to add a touch of heat to the delicious lemon flavor! Absolutely wonderful. Thanks for the recipe, which will be used over and over in our home.

<br>I can?t think of anything more relaxing than drooling over cookbooks..... I love 'em all; well the ones with pictures are at the top of my list. I have a huge collection of fundraiser type cookbooks from schools and country towns from all around Australia. These books contain many tried and true old-fashioned family favourites.
