This was pretty good. I had to look up what Char Siu sauce was, for American's it's just Chinese barbecue sauce. I couldn't find any green shallots, so I just used regular. I think I added a bit too much of the sauce, though. Ours was hot pink, but tasted fantastic! I think I'll try water chestnuts instead of walnuts next time.
