Ingredients

  3. Prepare the ingredients: cut the green onions into small rounds and slice the garlic. I added ginger but it affects the taste and is not recommended. In fact, if you don’t like onions, you can put other vegetables, carrots or cucumbers, whatever you like.

  4. Here comes the key thing, that is, the ratio of sweet, sour, soy sauce and cooking wine in this bowl is 4:2:1:1. Sugar is the heaviest, and a little salt is added. You can add starch or prepare a bowl to thicken the sauce.

  5. Prepare Sichuan peppercorns and chili pepper segments for later use

  6. I happened to have cashews at home, so I used cashews instead of peanuts. The cashews are not crispy when fried. It is recommended to fry them.
