This is an excellent dish for a Chinese meal. I suggest that you serve this with sauté vegetables, a Chinese style roast chicken, egg rolls and steam rice. The trick when you cook Chinese food is to make sure every thing is cut and sliced before your start cooking. This will help because some of the dishes require cooking only at the last minute. That way, you can concentrate on your cooking instead of running all over to cut your ingredients.
