Your version looks close to the dishes I love so I am going to give it a try, besides I trust you implicitly.OysterCulturehttp://oysterfoodandculture.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043567387409721448.post-85044166606663236362011-01-15T13:28:01.558-06:002011-01-15T13:28:01.558-06:00This looks better than takeout, and more healthy t...This looks better than takeout, and more healthy too - yum!Kerstinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14728395609823086751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1043567387409721448.post-780699585966428202011-01-15T11:17:01.759-06:002011-01-15T11:17:01.759-06:00I hope you get an opportunity to read Grace Young&...I hope you get an opportunity to read Grace Young's newest cookbook, Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge....and, of course, try some of the recipes.
