"This will go wonderfully with something like grilled steak or teriyaki chicken, or just on its own as a vegetarian main dish."

I LOVE this recipe. I used olive oil instead of coconut because its what I had on hand but followed everything else and it turned out delicious! The dark sesame oil really gives it that Asian flavor. Thank you!
