Firtly, can I just say that there so many good things I want to write about this awesome indo-chinese Schezwan sauce that it’s hard to decide where to start. Well, I would say first that just trust me comepletely and make this mouth-watering, versatile Schezwan sauce already because I’m sure it will blow your mind. Seriously, I mean what’s not to like? Obviously, the Schezwan sauce recipe is very easy-to-follow and simple. Also, it uses the same old indo-chinese standard ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. And as far as the taste is concerned, it is hot, fiery, sweet, garlicky, so full of flavour that you’ll have to resist yourself from overeating everytime you relish this Schezwan sauce.
Moreover, this Schezwan sauce is very versatile as you can use it in noodles, fried rice etc. Also, this can be treated as a dip with spring rolls, chips and momos. Not to mention, once you make it, it stays good for a whole entire month in the refrigerator. Finally, one important thing to remember is that because this Schezwan sauce recipe uses so many red chillies, it has a lot of heat so when you have it, it initially gives a sweet and garlicky taste but gradually the spice and fire grows in your mouth.
