I bought a wok last year along with a couple of cookbooks (one of them being Breath of a Wok) and have enjoyed many stir fried meals, but I have also had a few mediocre results and wondered where I was going wrong.

Now I realize that I was crowding the wok by trying to add more veggies (I thought more is more!) and I wasn't cutting the meat into small enough pieces.

I followed the instructions above and enjoyed an excellent meal today. Thank you!

I didn't have coriander so used ground cumin, and doubled the sweet potatoes. It's delicious! I'm used to spicy food and to me, this has a mild, pleasant heat. The leftovers will be perfect for packed lunch.

I rushed over to Sahadi's and stocked up on the spices and am drinking a cup of chai right now. Delicious, even though I forgot to add ginger!

But I think I'll have to take the tip from some of the Indian commenters above and put in tea from the beginning as a more robust tea flavor would work better.

I live on the 33rd floor. Thankfully I've never had to walk up or down (I wasn't here during the 2003 blackout in NY).

yum, I wanna get that and make a panini, right now!

this looks so much nicer than the $10 throw I just ordered on Amazon.

oh, this would be so great. btw, I read pom pom as porn porn.

I have two cats, I need this!!

I'm generally a big Ikea fan. But my Mysinge sofa started falling apart a few months after purchase. One day I was sitting on it and heard a very loud metallic "cling" sound. It was a spring coming off. There were more such sounds in the following days until the whole foam was sagging. I got rid of it at that point and got a Crate & Barrel sofa.

I got these exact tables (black/brown) three years ago. They look great in real life. However, they have not worn well. After about a year, some of the fake wood layer started peeling off. One of them also became wobbly. Despite all this, I like the look of them so much that I'm almost tempted to get the same ones again as replacements. Also to be fair, my tables probably got a bit more wear than is normal for side tables, my cats jump on them all the time, and one of them is my litter box cover, so gets moved around every day.
