I added the lime to the marinade and also added more garlic. It was delicious.

Disappointing. I followed the recipe exactly, and with the sugar in the marinade, the meat quickly burned while stir frying.
This is traditionally served with sliced tomatoes and cucumbers, and a soft fried egg. The lime sauce is not meant to be a marinade, but a dipping sauce.
