Made this for a side with grilled shrimp and jasmine rice. It's very tasty, but don't dress it more than 10 minutes in advance, as the soy sauce stains the English peas brown, which looks pretty unappetizing. Garnish with diagonal slices of scallion and some toasted white sesame seeds or toasted pine nuts. I agree that there's too much oil, half the amount would be adequate, as Asian toasted sesame oil is very intense.
