My father made this recipe after visiting Thailand. The only difference was cooking curry powder, about 1 tbsp with the onions and adding juliene carrots with the other vegetables.
I like this because it is so versatile and makes a good week-day dinner. I added grated carrot and green pepper for lots of veggies. Another time I used broken up “Top Ramen” and its flavor packet. We liked it both ways.
Very Good, although, I changed it a bit. Used oil not butter. Omitted the green beans & subbed about 1 cup shredded carrot. Used leftover turkey – no sirloin. I didn’t have the soup mix, so subbed 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon, added 2 heaping tablespoons curry powder & omitted soy sauce, since it detracted from the curry flavor. Enjoy!
This was a great meal! It made enough to feed 6 people. I omitted the butter and just simmered the veggies in the water/broth mix. Broccoli slaw is great mixed in as well! Definately will make again
My entire 5-distinctly-different-senses-of-taste family DEVOURED this! I made it as is, except that I used half a package of preshredded cabbage. 🙂 This was aromatic and flavorful. Thank you so much for the recipe!
I didn’t make any changes to this recipe. It is easy to make and comforing on a cold and rainy day.
This meal may not look pretty but it is full of flavor and an inexpensive favourite in our family. I add 1 cup of rice and add 2 cups of water to make my version a true one pot wonder. I often use dry slaw in a bag. It looks like a lot but it dissolves down. Give this one a try. It is sure to please.
This was just so good. I will be making this again. I used the bag of shredded cabbage. Saved me some time. Family loved it! Nice and easy too.
This has become a family favorite, and it is probably my kids’ favorite family meal. It’s very homey and comforting. If you are looking for a recipe to get your kids to eat more vegetables, try this one. I make it exactly as written and serve it with French bread or rolls with butter and oranges.
This was good! Thanks for the recipe!
My family really enjoyed this. My 8 yo dd even liked this. Just do not add any additional salt.
Very good! I used a pack of lipton golden onion soup instead of chicken noodle and then just added some boullion and it turned out very well. My husband LOVED IT.
Pretty good. My husband and daughter loved it, I just thought it was alright. Kind of bland even though I added more soy sauce, pepper, and garlic powder. It needs something, I’m just not sure what. Maybe even more soy sauce.
This was good and so easy. I added a bit more soy sauce.
Sorry, I followed this recipe and didn’t change a thing at all. It was rather BLAND.
This was a great recipe, even my 2 year old loved it! I used light soy sauce and onion soup mix. My husband added tobasco sauce to his (he complained that there were too many vegetables, but he went back for seconds!). I will definately make this again!
This was delicious, but a little oily, so next time I’ll drain some of the oil out of the bottom of the pan befor I add the liquid. I followed another reviewer’s advice and added some cyanne pepper which really added to the flavor. I also used frozen peas instead of green beans because it was what I had on hand and they worked very well.
This dish was absolutely delicious. I had never used cabbage before for anything but soup and stuffed cabbage, but this recipe definitely enlightened me to some more possibilities. Thank you for sharing!
This was a great dish. My family loved it. I did however add additional soysauce (about a tbs) and a cube of chicken bouillon for additional flavor.
I too cooked this a little differently. I browned the meat first, then drained it. I then added the veggies, plus about 1/2 tsp of chopped garlic, and 1/2 bag of bagged coleslaw mix. I also used a ramen noodles package because that’s all I had, and I used a can of beef broth instead of water. Added the meat back in and viola! Done very quickly. Tasty, and makes alot. My son didn’t care for it, so I’ll have plenty of leftovers for lunch for the week. Thanks for the post, I will make again.
a good kid dish– bland but tasty. i browned the sirloin first, then drained it on paper towels while the veggies cooked. i did add extra veggies, extra soy sauce, pepper, and just a dash of sesame oil, and i reduced the water by one-half cup. i don’t know about serving it with bread or rice–you’ll have a bunch of noodles in the dish already from the soup mix and adding more rice seems like carb overload…
