Gosh this looks good. I so don't have the patience for recipes with more ingredients than I have fingers though...how about you come to my house and make it?
ReplyDeleteScooter LOVES Kung Pao. Surprised? :D I don't care for it because it's typically too hot. But if I'm making it myself... Hmmmmmm! :P

Me wantie. What do I serve it on? Noodles? Rice?
ReplyDeleteDo I really need to break chiles open with my hands? Will I touch my eye? Ooooh...
WV: litub
Oh sorry - over rice.
ReplyDeleteDO NOT TOUCH YOU EYE!!! Be very careful after breaking open the chilis. If you do not break them open they will not flavour the dish as well. (Do you like how I spelled flavour? Just for YOU!)
