Cook’s Note
Sometimes I use 2 tablespoons of garlic-chile paste instead of the ginger and diced jalapeño. Depending on how spicy you like it, you can add more. We love spice!
For topping the tacos, mix a bag of shredded coleslaw with thinly sliced cucumbers and carrots. Season the slaw with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, salt, and pepper.
