A very tasty stir-fry! I also used less oil, but left everything else the same. I bet it would be great with chicken, beef or pork too! Thanks for posting, Nemokitty.

Loved this stirfry! I used about half the sesame oil specified, otherwise made as directed. The ginger flavor really came through; we like spicy and I loved the addition of the red pepper flakes. I think this would be great with chicken as well as shrimp. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

This is so good. I omitted the celery cause I don't like when it's still crispy and I was afraid it would be because that the cooking time is not a lot. It was great even without the celery. I omitted the red pepper flakes because of my son. Thanks Nemokitty :) Made for Holiday tag
