We really enjoyed this. It wasn't quite enough "Fire" for us so I added some more red pepper. It had such a good flavor to it. Thank you!

I love this recipe exactly as it is. I didn't realize the first time I made it that you usually eat the white, stalky part of the leek and not the green part. So that was a learning experience in leeks, and it was even better when I got it right! I also reccomend pre-boiling some udon noodles and just mixing them in when you stir fry the beef and the vegetables. Excellent!

This was so good even without the sesame oil that I ran out of. I am definitely going to make it again with the sesame oil. I also added red bell peppers. This could not be easier.

Fantastic! We like heat so I doubled the red peppers and used white pepper instead of black. Toasted sesame seeds, stir-fried veggies, set aside, stir-fried meat w/o extra sauce. Then added back sauce, seeds & veggies - dumped over brown rice. So easy and superb!

This was a very simple and tasty recipe that I enjoyed making. The flavors all came together nicely and the spice was great. However, it was -very- salty, and I would recommend using a low sodium soy in place of regular. Otherwise, great recipe. Thanks!

This was VERY salty, and I hate to say it, but unappetizing. I will not make it again.

Nothing special or too different from what I grew up eating. I wouldn't call this "Fire" - I added the more than the amount of red pepper and some Sriracha Hot Sauce and can still barely taste the heat. I agree with other reviewers that the sauce was too salty for me and that it needed more brown sugar. One advice for others - do NOT leave out the sesame oil or substitute it. The sesame oil is very important in Asian cooking and gives this recipe its flair.

Very very good! I did make some changes due to the other comments. I cut down on the soy sauce b/c someone said it was to salty. I am dissapointed I did that b/c I felt it needed more salt and ended up adding some to my plate. Also I added like 2 teaspoons more of brown sugar and wished I would have added even more. Lastly I added like another teaspoon of red pepper flakes which gave it the perfect hottness. I served it with jasmine rice. This was a wonderful dish and hubby liked it a lot to, which I LOOOOVE the praise when a great meal is put on the table...which this was!!

We all found this to be very salty from the large amount of soy sauce. The flavour was not bad, but it was just too salty. Next time, I think I will use less soy as well as drain the excess sauce before cooking.
