My very picky husband helped me rate this, and we are Asian-loving cooks, so here goes! This has great bones! The only change we made, if you can call it that, is for the oil: we used some sesame oil and a little bit of hot chili oil. This is fabulous! Thanks, Charmie!

Hmmm...interesting and good. My dad grows red chili peppers, so we used those, and we didn't have a bell pepper, so we just left that out. Since my sister and brother don't eat spicy, they didn't eat it, but everybody else did...lol.
