This was very easy to prepare...perfect for a weeknight dinner. I followed the recipe as written but did add some chopped red bell pepper. Good flavor but a bit bland. Next time I will increase ginger to 1 tablespoon and will increase the soy sauce. The sauce did not thicken up so I will either reduce the chicken broth or increase the amount of tapioca. I cooked it 6 hours but I think next time I will put it on for 8 hours because the carrots were still a bit crunchy. We will make this again. Made for PRMR.
