I like my stir fry's on the saucier side so did as advised by another reviewer to add more orange juice, really tasty and can use any veg you have in

Great recipe, loved the flavour!

The orange flavour really comes through in this dish. Next time I would probably make a bit more sauce so maybe add a little more water or orange juice if you like your stir-fries more 'saucy'!
