Really good, easy, fast, was perfect for us just as written--oh, I did add just a pinch of salt.....Used the battter on shrimp, eggplant, carrots, red pepper, zucchini, onions...made a lot of batter, I tossed the rest..

Tasted great once we got the right consistency. Had to cut back the flour to 2 cups and increase the water by 1/2 cup. Someone commented that it could have used a dash of salt. Other than that it was great. We used red and orange bell peppers, mushrooms, onion and carrots. Everyone enjoyed being able to create their own dinner to their taste.

Delicious, we really enjoyed this and so easy to do. I used Zucchini cut in chunks instead of eggplant. Also cut a sweet potato into small chunks, SOOooo good. Thank you Chia.
