A very spicy preparation of vegetables with soy sauce, a common favorite.  A dish which is prepared with chunks of vegetables stir fried in a very tangy base of soy and chilli sauce. This dish can make a great accompaniment to almost all Asian Rice Dishes.

So glazy and inviting! I too make this but with very little vinegar. I love these kind of gravies with stewed rice - there the imagination is working on my tongue already:)

Chilli Vinegar - vinegar which has green chillies in it. if not available, you could use plain white vinegar. Check Chinese brands for chilli sauce and chilli vinegar, you could get them in indian stores as well if you like in PA, USA. If not you could experiment with your own chilli sauce - the simplest being, adding some chilli powder to tomato sauce. Hope this helps. Thanks for writing in.
