This is followed by what is known in China as 'mala' - a pleasant mouth-numbing feeling from the Szechuan peppercorns - resulting in a memorable dish you'll be coming back to time and time again. Simply add the Szechuan peppercorns and dried chilli from the spice sachet for a delicious flourish of flavour.

Sauce facts
Famed for its bold flavours, liberal use of chilli and unique szechuan peppercorn, the sichuan province of southwestern china is where this dish originates from. The Szechuan pepper is native to the province and is sure to be loved by adventurous spice lovers. The Chinese food scene in the west was once mainly cantonese-inspired, but the spicy cuisine of the Sichuan province has now gained popularity and reshaped our understanding of Chinese food. In our rendition of Szechuan sauce, that characteristic zingy tingling shines through to delightfully mouthwatering effects.
