i liked this a lot. i didnt have rice or white vinegar, so i used red wine vinegar, and it came out fine. served over brown jasmine rice.

Oh, this was delicious. I used white vinegar because the only rice vinegar I had included a pesto flavor - why is so hard to find plain rice vinegar? Anyway, I didn't have spinach but did have kale, so I stir fried the kale a bit first then added the rest of the ingredients in Step 3. Everyone loved the dish - even my16 year old junk food junkies.
