    Made this with pork and it was a hit. 

    I added 1 tbsp of fermented bean curd to mine. Will definitely make it again.  

    Winner!'

    Tried this recipe tonight. It was very tasty and easy to prepare.

    Just a note: I cut the potato to < 2cm cubes and it took about 25minutes for them to get really soft and soaked through with the sauce.
