very nice, made for company tonight and everyone loved them. I had no green beans or bean sprouts, so used mushrooms and snow peas and the rest as in the recipe except for no red pepper, just green and a jalepeno for the chli. It had a very nice bite, I added salt and quite a lot of pepper also. I will be making it again, thanks for posting.

This was really excellent. I did halve the recipe, and further reduced the amount of oil with good results. I also omitted the bean sprouts because I did not have any on hand. This recipe will lend itself well to any number of different veggie combinations and is very forgiving. The lime juice does a nice job of brightening all of the flavors. Thank you Fay for sharing the recipe. It is one I am sure to return to.

This was great. I used the vegetables that I had available and added the sauces and juice together near the end. Lovely flavour combo.
