Notes
Serve this dish hot, right from the skillet. It pairs well with rice or noodles, but can also be enjoyed on its own. You can add a sprinkle of sesame seeds or extra chili flakes for added flavor. To store leftovers, let the dish cool completely, transfer to an airtight container, and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
