Had a few issues with burning the garlic and ginger purée at the start (probably had a the wok too hot) but end result was delicious nonetheless! Will definitely be having this again.

Hey Edward! You nailed it guessing that the wok might've been a touch too hot; starting at a slightly lower temp should do the trick next time. Definitely give it another go soon!

Me and the wife loved this. Had it with the crispy chicken and plenty leftover for another time. 👍🏻

Loving the idea of a little Chinese Fakeaway buffet; and even better that there are leftovers - no need to stress about lunch/dinner the next day, ideal 👌
