    This is exactly what I needed, wonderful texture and still had nice flavor using garlic powder and ground ginger instead of fresh. I just figured out that I should add extra cornstarch and make the sauce way thicker than I need, so the frozen veggies I use for stir-fry don't water it down so much. - 5/31/13

    I used ground ginger and Splenda brown sugar because I already had them in my cabinet. It was still great! - 1/31/10
