    Preparation is easy and the finished product has excellent flavor. I will definitely make this dish again and again. One caution, however: If your taste does not run to very hot/spicy, consider reducing the amount of red pepper flakes by half or even three-fourths... - 8/11/09

    This was really quick and easy to make. I was a bit worried when I saw the finished product, as it was kind of gluey looking. However, it tasted just right. I might reduce the corn starch when I make it the next time - and I WILL make it again! - 8/1/09
