    Bland without any additions. I add a red chilli and some worcestershire sauce to add flavour.

    As the previous comments suggest, the meal was too bland. Other than the soy sauce, there was no real flavour, since onions, chicken breast, bean sprouts and noodles are all fairly flavourless.

    I've made this a few times....and find it quite tasty. I also add a chopped red chilli, and a splash more soy sauce...and also let the onions brown a bit longer, to give a bit more flavour. I also think a sliced green or red pepper would szhoosh it up a bit :o)

    I used straight to wok Thai rice noodles because I had them in the cupboard and emergency tinned beansprouts. I also added grated ginger (about the same quantity as the garlic) and chili flakes; it was a lovely, quick midweek meal.
