I serve the stir-fry over the rice for a tasty no-fuss meal. For maximum flavor, use your fingertips to crumble the dried basil directly into the cooked rice.—Betsy Larimer, Somerset, Pennsylvania

Nothing special, quite spicy. Not a keeper recipe.

This recipe was too spicy hot for us. I should have skipped the cayenne pepper and the ginger was overpowering though I used the lesser amount. I afraid this one won't be a repeat.

This is very good, goes well with the Beef Vegetable Stir-Fry. Husband couldn't rave enough.

It doesn't get easier than this! Plus, it's quite tasty. I recommend it for an easy side dish.
