  1. This turned out just okay for us. Tasted pretty good, but ended up with a funky pale gravy like consistency. Probably something I did or did not do when cooking. Thanks for the recipe, but I don't think I will make this again.
     
  2. Hi there! This was excellent! I made this for 2 servings. It had such a nice flavor. I didn't have peanut oil, but used veg. oil, and it still turned out great! Thank you so much for the great recipe. :)
