A favorite. Delicious and easy. I’ve been making this for over 30 years. Pairs nicely with honey chicken marinated in sesame oil, fresh ginger, soy sauce, and garlic. One of the first meals I cooked for the boyfriend who became my husband.
This is sublimely easy to make AND delicious. The perfect option when a tasty side is needed, but the cook doesn’t have a whole lot of time (or, for that matter) energy left.
