Very good tasting stir fry but like others suggested I doubled the sauce. The recipe can adjusts to a variety of vegetables but I love sugar snap peas in mine. We just have nuts on hand to sprinkle on after making serving since some of my kids have allergies. I usually use peanuts because we always seem to have them on hand. Thanks for a great stir fry recipe.

Thank you, Miss Nezz for posting this wonderful recipe. It was so very, very good. I used the grated ginger in the jar --- and I should have added more. I didn't have my thinking cap on when I decided not to use the ground ginger (knowing I should have bumped the amount I was using up). Nevertheless, it was still awesome. Instead of plain cooking oil, I used some sesame oil. I didn't use the carrot, but instead had some beautiful asparagus on hand. I also sliced the onion instead of chopping it. I know it will even be better the next time I make it -- due to adjuting the ginger -- and I think I'll also increase the soy sauce just a little. I added some minced garlic and will continue with that the next time I make this. It's such a fresh, healthy dish. Your directions were great (and I so appreciate that). This makes a marvelous meal.

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
