  Just made this and it's absolutely delicious. I just wish that it was easier to find edamame/soya beans.

  Would frozen broad beans work with this instead of the soya beans?

  To add some colour I suggest using a red pepper cut into fine strips. I used brown rice to add fibre and give me that "fuller for longer" feeling, but that takes a bit longer to cook so suggest cooking the rice first for ten minutes in the stock then adding the chicken for a further ten minutes.

  fab recipe! added more soya beans as didn't look like enough, and it could have done with a little more colour but the taste was superb! Did add a little more ginger than the recipe suggested so that might have affected it!

  Well, I'm not sure if it's the recipe or my modifications, but the dish did not turn out too well. I used chicken thies and instead of soya beans - broad beans. The combination of spices worked well, but broad beans were completely bland and.. boring! Not sure if soya beans have any stronger flavour, I've never tried them, but if not.. then this dish is just average, the most.
