    Cooked this tonight and was very excited that it tasted as good as the recipe looked. Like some reviewers mentioned, I made a little more sauce than the recipe called for but not sure how much more as I typically do not measure ingredients in a recipe like this. Served over brown rice to make a little healthful. I happened to have beef short ribs (boneless on hand that were not very fatty so used that for the beef --excellent! Also added red pepper flakes to the sauce--excellent again. All around, a very good recipe that I will make again and again. Thanks Sandra.

    The first time I made this, I made it with beef but it came out really tough and we didn't think there was enough sauce to go with the rice. However, I made this a second time with pork tenderloin, doubled the sauce (thickened with a little cornstarch, added a red bell pepper and a can of water chestnuts and it really came out amazing! It's great how easily customizable this recipe is.

    This recipe is great. I had given up on Chinese Take Out due to high sodium and additives. This recipe was quick and delicious. I look forward to trying it with chicken.

    This recipe is WONDERFUL! I did cheat and use N.Y. strip steak as I wanted a better cut of beef. The flavor is very good. Often recipes for homemade Chinese food are pretty sad, but not this one. I would up portion of meat to 2 pounds to serve 4 hungry people, especially for men. If you like a lot of sauce to put over rice, prepare another 1/2 of the sauce recipe.
    Way to go, Sandra!

    This was very good. It did take longer than 30 minutes to make because I did the meat in batches.

    I used the beef in a completely different stir fry recipe, so I have no idea whether this recipe is good, but I can tell you the beef is great for stir fry! I used thinly sliced round steak, and salt and peppered it before I coated it with the cornstarch. I also avoided coating it in the sauce in the final dish, so that it would stay crisp.

    It was perfect, thanks Sandra!

    What happened to the recipe for the sauteed broccoli that was on this episode?
    I sure would like to have it.

    made this after tearning down wallpaper- awful job. Wanted to order out, but had all the ingredients..it was easy and delicious..it's now in my folder. it's a keeper. I tooki the advice of not crowding the pan for the beef..worked great.

    Next time I will cut down on the marmalade, but i really loved the technique. I learned something new with the quick frying of the beef!
