I followed some previous recommendations and halved the sugar. Be warned, if you do this you also need to at least halve the amount of lime juice. The way mine tured out was way too Limey but I will try i again, readjusting the lime and sugar content as the crispy beef was fab before I added the rest! Potential to be higher rated.
