IT WAS GREAT BUT I HAD TO ADD A LITTLE HOUSE SEASONING




Better than take out!

I substituted chicken instead of steak. Then I added yellow peppers, red peppers, bean sprouts, and soy sauce. My family was very happy!




Just OK

It was just OK to me. DH liked it better than I did. We didn't find a chemical taste at all. Maybe it has to do with the brand of stir fry sauce. I used Kikkoman. I doubt that I'll make it again.




HORRIFICALLY SALTY

Added spice to my 3.5 year old Stir fry!

After making a couple of different stir frys over the past 3.5 years, they became quite routine and boring. The added oyster sauce, water chestnuts and grated ginger worked really well in giving an old favorite a great new bite. It was extremely easy for me to make even though I had almost constant interruptions from adults and a four year old while prepping and cooking it!




quick and easy

this is one of the best recipes I have ever tried. It was quick and easy and very tasty! You can tweak it for your own tastes.

This was the worst stir fry I've ver tasted.




There are a lot of stir fry recipes out there.

This is not one to try. Save yourself embarrasement if wanting to do stir fry in front of friends and STAY AWAY from this one. Clue #1: good stir fry recipes use corn starch Clue #2: good stir fry recipes use sesame oil




Stir Fry Seasoning Packet is Foul

That seasoning packet ruined a perfectly good meal. Taste it before you add it to your food!




Very poor recipe

I thought that this was a very poor recipe. The stir fry tasted terrible. I won't use it again.




Wasn't horrible

Wasn't very good either. I prefer take-out.




What was this supposed to taste like?

It didn't taste anything like stir fry to me. Just a nasty salty mess. Much easier and tastier to order in and it doesn't cost much more.




Tasted like a mouthful of chemicals

This didn't remotely taste like any stir fry I have ever had. It was noxious. I would never serve this to my family!

No real flavor, nothing but salt (and maybe MSG?) Nothing like the real thing, baby!

didn't think this recipe sacrificed any flavor at all!!! In fact, it was very flavorful and not too salty to us.

Stir fry seasoning packets are mostly MSG and salt. It made the food taste VERY salty. We much prefer the prepared stir fry sauces that are in our regular supermarket. They give great flavor without the saltiness.

I made this. It's good! Not too salty, but just perfection. The flavor is wonderful, and I'm a picky eater :)

I didn't know "stir-fry" seasoning even existed till now, I guess because I always go straight for the taco seasoning. Stir fry seasoning is good! It gives your stir fry lots of flavor in a good way in my opinion! The meat in this dish came out great too and the sauce the was fantastic. Serving this with rice is a must, because unlike other stir frys it renders lots of good sauce!!




GOOD

We didn't think it tasted artificial at all! To us, it was just full of great flavor!! We will be putting this on our regular rotation now!




Extremely Artificial Tasting

We were very put off by the artificial taste of this recipe. I really doesn't taste anything remotely like chinese stir fry.




This recipe is just delish

Eveything about it came out perfect and it's very quick to make. The meat was tender, the veggies were crisp (I used fresh this time since I had them onhand), the flavor was amazing. What a great find.




BAD

This stir fry just flat out tasted bad. And nothing like chinese take out. Take out is easier and basically the same amount of money.




I care about my family too

They didn't like this recipe at all. Too salty and nothing like we get at our favorite Chinese takeaway. I won't serve this to them again!




You CAN have it all!!!

In my family's opinion the convenience of making this recipe and the taste were equal slam dunks! The seasonings make this beef and veggie stir fry the most flavorful I've ever made. I don't care what chinese restaurants do, I just cared how my family liked this!




Hated the taste

Did not taste like any chinese food we have ever had. Restaurants probably do not use those seasoning packets. Plus the vegetables were soft and mushy.




very good!

My family loved the taste the seasoning packet gave to the stir fry. Our meat was very tender, but I made sure to slice it thin and on a bias. I think cutting it that way works better for this prep.




Not very good

The beef was too chewy and tough plus the whole thing tasted fuun with that stir fry seasoning packet. Did not taste anything like real chinese food.




This stir fry has oomph!!
