Short on flavor--I added brown sugar, but that lost the sauerkraut flavor. I made too much and thought it would be better the next day, but it just was tired and boring. I'll try again, perhaps the beer is the answer! I will probably cook this in the oven, as it was so colorless (and I'm retired).

This was very fast and good. I used spaghetti noodles and chunky peanut butter. I also used crushed red pepper flakes in place of hot chile paste, about 1/2 tsp of dried ginger, and a little less garlic. I would have liked the green onions and chopped peanuts but they were not available at the moment. I sauteed some large shrimp in butter and tossed them on top. Yum!

I used the recipe with beef short ribs and rice. I added a cup of BBQ sauce instead of the 2nd cup of ketchup. The sauce was a little thin, but good. I would eliminate the BBQ sauce next time. For your information, Chili Sauce is not Mexican nor Asian. I buy the Heinz, 12oz size, in a clear glass jar. It's not at all spicy. It mostly contains tomatoes and vinegar with a little corn syrup.
