Deborah :

My husband loved it! As did another review advised, I added the bell pepper and pineapple to the sauce. Great flavor and the peppers are soft,not crunchy.Prep was a bit messy, but well worth the clean up time.

I absolutely love this recipe. I serve it with chow mein noodles and eggrolls. My family is crazy about it. I’ve also used the batter for onion rings.
