Notes

Not suitable to freeze. Not suitable to microwave.

*Serve with Rice if desired. We like just buttering up some bread and having some little 'chowmein' sangas.

*I microwave this all the time, seems fine to me.

*This is a good recipe that you can change any of the vegies that you have in your fridge that need using up.

*I add about 1/2 a cup of oyster sauce instead of the 1/3 cup. We like it 'saucy'

*I steam the carrots in the microwave for 2 mins so they soften a little so it doesnt take as long to cook.
