CHINESE STIR-MICROWAVE



Chinese Stir-Microwave image

I was assigned to cook a dish of vegetables for my family's reunion dinner this Chinese New Year, but due to a migraine, my plan to cook claypot tofu went down the drain. This recipe at http://www.ehow.com/how_4556015_chinese-stirfry-microwave.html came to my rescue, but with some changes! Well received and complimentary to my sister-in-law's chilli crab.
