This was a great simple recipe. My grocery store was out of savoy cabbage so I used green cabbage. Still tasty but I am sure savoy would have been better. Can't wait to make it again. Oh I also added some red bell pepper and red pepper flake very yummy!
Good Start Needs Some Extras I made this as the recipe called for except i used 1 tsp of sugar instead of 2 regular vinegar instead of rice and chunky Kraft peanut butter instead of smooth natural as thats all i had in the house. I did find it a little bland so I added soya sauce and some hot sauce on the plate and then my fiance and I both ate til we were so full it hurt! Its an excellent base recipe just need to make some changes to suit you and your family. I think we'll make this again for sure and just add a little more soya and hot sauce to the sauce mixture and add some broccoli and pea pods to the veggies and half the cabbage. Pros: Easy Fast Fragrant Cons: A Little on the Bland Side
Real good but udon noodles double the calories Would not recommend udon noodles. For teh amount of calories the satiety of them is not that great. Pros: delicious nutritious all around great by itself Cons: udon noodles have alot of calories
Peanut Sauce Too Heavy I was looking forward to this meal since I love cabbage and beef together. I made the sauce in a larger amount as some reviewers recommended. I did not like the peanut sauce at all. The peanut butter made it really heavy gritty and too sweet (and I didn't add the sugar the recipe calls for). I think I might try it again without the peanut butter and see how it tastes. Bummed me out that it wasn't that good. Pros: Quick and Easy One-Pan to Clean No Carbd Cons: Heavy flavor beef overwhelmed by sauce
This dish was wonderful! I used the napa cabbage instead of savoy cabbage and served with rice noodle. It was delicious! My husband loved it too. I'll make it again.
Where did I go wrong? I am not sure what I did wrong. The peanut sauce was gritty and not subtly sweet Maybe I just don't like peanut sauce? Anyway I ditched the sauce and made a different one that I had from a Beef with Broccoli recipe. I served it with Rice. The cabbage carrots and beef were great! Pros: Beef and Veggies are tasty Cons: The Peanut sauce
Just needs a few additions... This recipe is a great start and with a few additions it's one of my favorites! I followed the recipe to a tee then added some broccoli to the veggies as well as some sriracha sauce to the peanut butter / OJ / soy sauce mixture. It was FANTASTIC like this - and made great leftovers! We had it over some couscous cooked in chicken broth because it's all I had in the house and it went wonderfully: ) I'm making it again tonight for my parents but with chicken instead of steak this time. I'm sure they'll love it as much as we do! Pros: Easy and healthy Cons: A little boring
Popular with the entire family I added some shitake mushrooms. Everybody loved it and asked for it to be made again. Pros: easy - everybody likes it
Sauce doesn't have depth None of the base ingredients are expensive but the sauce doesn't do much for them. Pros: Base ingredients are good and fairly inexpensive Cons: Rather bland
