  This is delicious and easy to make. I added sugar snap peas and mushrooms. Great for midweek casual dinner with friends.

  Yummy! I used pork instead of the chicken and added mushrooms and chilli for some heat. You can really make this dish with whatever ingredients you want - the sauce is delicious! I'll be making it again :o)

  The family really enjoyed this and it was easy to make. Although I stuck to the recipe I agree that you could add other ingredients such as mushrooms or any other veg.

  I loved this recipe it was easy and the cashews really gave it crunch. I used half the watercress as I thought the amount was huge and overwhelmed the dish. Give it a try you will love it.

  Hey I followed this but as I don't like onions I substituted them for some chopped up chilli pepper (the big one that isn't too spicy). It worked really well. The recipe is great though I'd recommend it massively...
