Hey, gals! This recipe does sound good. It looks like a typical Chinese recipe that has a gazillion ingredients and the prep work is 3/4 of the cooking. But very yummy in the end!!

Pretty much! Although it helps save on some time if you leave out those nasty peppers! :)
Kim! What would it be without the peppers?! Silly.
It would be awesome, that's what it would be. :)
This is very good. However, I would urge you strongly to never make this if your husband is working late and you have a 2 1/2 year old and a 5 month old who need any amount of attention. Huge mistake. I should've done the prep work while they were napping, instead of deciding last minute to tackle this. It is good, I'll say that. Oh, I didn't bother with the sesame seeds at the end, b/c, well, some things just aren't worth messing with.
