"Another one from Dlife.com that I've had to radically alter to make work in reality. This makes a nice side dish to chicken or pork, and can also be served cold as a salad."

I cooked these for the first 4 minutes as recommended and my veggies where already soft so I did not cook them for the additional 4 minutes. I mixed in the sauce and served this with baked tilapia. I will add garlic to this next time I make it as I found it needed a little boost. Thanks for sharing your recipe here :-)

Lovely presentation but the recipe needed some zip. I couldn't find any toasted sesame oil so I used regular Asian. I think perhaps some minced ginger root. We liked it just didn't love it.
