YUMmmmmm! This recipe is terrific! The Ginger makes it extra special. While I wanted to follow it to a "T" I made a couple of Minor adjustments. Outside of the three eggs, I cut everything else in half. To make it a Grand Serving for Four. I used only Fat Free Cooking Spray for the eggs thus reserving the 1 1/2 Tablespoons of oil (I used olive) allotted for cooking the chicken. Using 50 grams of ginger scared me a little as I've never used more than 5 - 6 grams in any dish so I cut it down to a quarter that and it turned out perfect! I didn't know what spring onions were so I chopped up and threw in a package of chives. The liquid content was not nearly enough for cooking the noodles so I added a cup of water to the simmering mixture. This allowed them to cook down nicely in about 5 minutes. At the very end I added another half cup of water to loosen it up a bit as the noodles are quite sticky and it was hard to dish up. I'm extremely glad I cut the ginger down to about 12.5 grams (for half of the recipe) else it would've been way too strong. By following my instincts on this, I can happily give this recipe Five stars! Reviewed for PAC Spring 2012.
