This is a very satisfying stir fry that made a wonderful rice bowl dinner. We really liked the addition of the walnuts. I made as written cutting the water to 3/4 cup as we did not want too much sauce and did fallow the suggestion in step 8 and added some garlic and ginger. Will make again, thanks for the post.
