  2. Would it be a big flavor loss if I omitted the sesame seeds? They are the only item I don’t have on hand.

  3. My group made this recipe and those of us who followed the instructions for the slow cooker, found the dish way overcooked. Has anyone tried just stir-frying the meat instead?

    1. You could stir-fry the meat if you want to, but then you loose the convenience of the slow cooker. You could also try a lower setting or shorter time in your slow cooker.

  4. Just put this in the slow cooker and there isn’t really any liquid in there! Is that going to be ok?

    1. It will be fine. The meat and veggies will add some liquid as they cook. But if you would like a little extra sauce you can add more liquid.

    1. I suppose you could, but if you choose to brown the meat first, you will want to lessen the slow cooking time and the temperature.

    1. Hi, Tricia. You could either reheat the rice in the microwave, covered loosely, for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Or you could also put it in a pot with a lid on the stovetop with just a bit of water to steam for a few minutes until it’s warmed.
