hi
i tried your recipe and its delish!
i wasn't able to stir fry w/o all of the sauce, there were a bit left. nevertheless, the dish tasted soo good. esp the thickness of the sauce, you don't really need a lot and the tenderness of the meats. to think that I hate gizzard, now I love it. and the atay, turned into bits with the sauce and rice, yum!
