The taste of this was excellent. Very colourful and I especially liked the crunch of the sesame seeds. The only change I would make would be to add a bit more cornstarch at the end, or cut the water. I found it was very watery after I'd added the orange juice, water and stir fry sauce and had to boil for a bit with some extra cornstarch to get it down to a thick sauce.
