Delicious!!! Made it without the jalapeño but next time I’m adding it in. Thank you for sharing.
Haven’t made it yet- I see substitutions for brown rice vinegar…
What “quick” vegetable stock ideas do you suggest? There are many out there.
Hello,
What can I use instead of brown rice vinegar?
Hi Svetlana,
You could use standard rice vinegar, apple cider vinegar, or white wine vinegar instead. Let us know how it goes!
This makes for a quick & easy yet sophisticated side dish. It was a perfect recipe for me as a beginner wfpb’er a couple years ago & is still a family favourite today 🙂 Feb. 7, 2023 My fam is not a big fan of heat so I left out the pepper & it was still delicious. I like the other comments of serving over rice so I’m looking forward to trying that. There is definitely enough sauce left over for that 🙂
Couldn’t find the brown rice vinegar in time so made it without it. This may have been the best thing I’ve made in a while. Served it over rice. Wish I could attach a picture. It’s gorgeous and delicious.
This is a delicious recipe that I make about once a week and have with brown rice. I don’t always include the chili pepper, but usually double the portions for lots of yummy leftovers
🙂
I thought this was great and I can see using it on other vegetables. It is simple, but adds so much flavour without oil or salt.
i loved it, just as is. it did take longer to cook and mine wasnt as pretty. but a win win here.
I just made this as the recipe states. It’s delicious. I’ll make it again. I love trying new recipes and new ingredients. Thank you.
Added a touch of sweetness (maple syrup). Make sure it’s brown rice vinegar you use-I grabbed the rice vinegar by mistake – yuck! Corrected it. Added a couple mushrooms alongside the bok choy. Delicious recipe and the kitchen smelled very Asian – wonderful. Thank you once again Ms Thacker for your diverse creativity.
I’m sorry but this was not good
Given the previous comments,I replaced the jalapeño pepper with date sugar and decreased the ginger. That made for quite a tasty dish. I would make it again.
Sounds delicious. I will try it tonight with broccoli
