Triple "S" Stir-fry



The three S's of this stir-fry are "Sweet'n'Sour'n'Spicy"! It's a simple dish that's filling and delicious, but takes less than half an hour to make. It's also an excellent way to use up leftover rice. The beautiful trio of flavours provide a rich depth to every mouthful. Balance out the flavours to your personal preference. If you like spice, add more spice. If you like sour, add more sour. Personalize it to your taste!
