I believe you would use the egg white mixture as a marinade. This is a really good dish. Easy to prepare and very flavorful.

This was very tasty. I too wasn't sure where to put the egg white mixture, so like the previous reviewer, I put it in at the end. If I make this again, however, I'll put it in after step 6. This had a very nice flavor to it.

You were right - easy, tasty and quick! I served over rice and added onion. Also used peanut instead of veggie oil, and added extra soy and chili. I was a bit confused about when to add the egg white mixture, I ended up throwing it in at the end. Thanks for a good recipe Sueie!
