how to make CHARLIE CHAN PASTA (YELLOW CAB)

[lemonade]

clara ole supplies the sauce to yellow cab, although it's specially made for YC so it's a bit different from the sauce available on the grocery shelves. because i'm too lazy to cook from scratch, i use clara ole's kung pao pasta sauce when i get a craving. i love it, my favorite!

try ko nga yang kung pao sauce ng clara ole

1st time we tried this today! Sarap nga! we just added chicken, mushroom, peanuts & topped w/ chili flakes for added kick. Naku lagi na kami bibili nya. Tama lang yung anghang & di rin maalat We'll try it w/ shrimp naman next time and for healthier option, nakita ko in 1 blog na may nag-try before w/ tofu naman!

^i tried it na with tofu when i cooked for my vegetarian relatives. sarap daw.

^ yey next on the list yan! gusto ko tuloy try yung pesto ng Clara Ole.

^ natry ko na yung cheesy pesto, masarap parang in restos din.

masarap din yung cheesy pesto but it's more than a hundred pesos per pack. yung kung pao sauce nasa P29 lang.  i had visitors last friday night and i cooked steak and kung pao pasta with lots of chicken slices and shiitake mushrooms. yummy!

[u8mypinkcookies]

^ oo nga nagulat ako ang laki ng price difference ng pesto dun sa ibang sauce nila! hehe pero ok lang kung masarap naman. sama namin sa grocery list yan.

^ sis please post some details how you cook this recipe, nag-saute ka pa ba ng onion at garlic? thanks..

^melt butter, saute galic and chicken,mushroom ,add sauce, add sugar, adjust seasonings according to taste, add crushed chili. Lastly, toss with noodles

^ parang hindi bagay yung lasa ng butter sa kung pao sauce. i prefer using canola or olive oil for this. oriental kasi ang taste eh kaya parang medyo opposing if butter ang gagamitin.

I tried both mas gusto ng hubby ko yung may butter kesa olive oil pero para sa akin pareho lang

we used olive oil too. aside from the chicken & mushroom, add nuts too and top with chili flakes! we didn't add sugar na pala.

[babyjapnurse01]

^ same here, ayoko din ng masyadong matamis. <333 pero super love ko pag madaming chili flakes.

[u8mypinkcookies]

^ true! sayang 1 pouch lang binili namin to try.. next grocery day, bibili ulit kami Sana nga spicy peanuts in-add namin para mas maanghang. Haha, regular salted peanuts lang kasi meron kami last week pero solved na rin!

[babyjapnurse01]

^ ill take note of that idea ng spicy peanuts. yan gagawin ko next time.

[nicegirl05]

mga sis crushed peanut ba or buo? sorry ha pero di ko pa to natry sa yellow cab thats why di ko alam ang taste (dito kasi ko sa provice eh ), pero i'm willing to cook this kasi i think its easy and yummy based sa mga comments nyo..
