Description: This is a recipe Gram and Pap developed based on a popular Chinese restaurant in Tallahassee, Lucy Ho’s. This went with their rendition of her Cashew Chicken. We would also make egg rolls and hot mustard. It was a day in the kitchen chopping, grating, sauteing and lots and lots of conversation. The best kind of day and meal! Chopsticks required!
