Vegetables like cabbage,carrots, bell peppers( capsicum) and spring onions are cut and mixed with salt and pepper and fried,these fried veg balls are then soaked in spicy tangy sauce.I have not used any of Ajinomoto as I have read a few queries against Ajinomoto and health when I googled about it.
No Ajinomoto in my Chinese recipes.
