this is fabulous! we add extra spice to ours to make it hotter, use low fat peanut butter, and serve over steamed shredded cabbage instead of rice. - 4/16/08

This reminds me of a West African dish called Mafe, made with more vegetables. My recipe calls for beef and sweet potato. Some call for lamb, egg or just veggies such as cabbage, yams, squash, okra, eggplant, potatoes, peppers or carrots. - 10/8/07

First SP recipe I've tried. Will make it again. I toasted the sesame seeds, and cooked the pork with a slice of fresh ginger heated in the oil first. Served it on a nest of steamed cabbage, with a scoop of brown rice in the center. It was yummy! Will make it again. - 4/19/09

This was very good! The pork was good on its on for leftovers w/o the higher-fat/calorie sauce. The sauce was amazing, I just used less sauce/serving & cooked brown rice. Next time I plan to add chicken broth to make it less thick and freeze the leftover sauce for the next time I make the pork. - 4/8/08

The sauce was a little thick. We would also use garlic powder instead of garlic salt next time. We also found that we had to triple the rub to get enough on the pork. We love that you can change the salsa and get a whole new flavor out of it! - 4/6/08

Kids really like the pork but didn't care as much for the sauce. I thought it was a little off somehow too but can't put my finger on exactly what the problem was.

Next time I'll use the sesame seeds and green onions. Maybe that was the problem. At any rate there will be a next time. Thanks! - 1/24/09

I ran it thru the recipe calculator. 448 calories, 20g fat, 667 mg sodium - using w/ low sodium soy sauce! Using garlic pwd instead of salt drops sodium to 539mg. 443 mg if 1 Tbs. soy sauce. Calculations include brown rice, not white, and pork tenderloin instead of chops. Does sound good! - 4/4/09

Served with lightly steamed bok choi and snow peas. Snow peas contain a fantastic amount of nutrients. There is plenty of sauce to glaze the veggies. Use reduced sodium soy sauce or tamari and kick the ginger and chili powder up a notch, if you really want it spicy use Viet Namese chili sauce. - 4/5/10

I make often but I cook meat first in half the oil in non-stick wok then remove to plate. I add other half oil plus one chopped sweet pepper plus a half cup chopped yellow onion and stir fry until almost done then add half cup sliced mushrooms. When cooked I add pork,rice,sauce and stir together! - 1/19/10

I can tell just from the ingredients this is fabulous. As a vegetarian, you can't PAY me to eat pork! But I AM going to make it with Quorn cutlets (vegetarian) I love Thai anyway, and it's very easy to substitute Quorn cutlets for the pork. - 4/5/09
