Tried without the chili as it was for the kids as well. No MSG as I think it destroys my mouth - and keep it low on the salt as well. Tasty! - 24 Feb 2016
If you like spicy this is for you! I couldn't find Chinese celery so I used regular celery. I also omitted the MSG and the salt. I used 3 tsp of low sodium soy sauce. Next time I would add about 1/4 tsp sugar to the soy sauce / white pepper and rice wine mix just to off set the heat a tiny bit. This cooks really quickly so have everything measured and prepped. I set the rice to cook in the rice cooker, prepped everything as soon as the rice cooker switched to warm, I started cooking. The thinly sliced pork cooks very fast - do not over cook it. In less than 10 minutes this is ready to serve. Thanks! - 27 Feb 2015
