Well, haven't posted anything for awhile, so here we go with a
Szechuan Eight Treasure Stir Fry. If you want it hotter, add more
chiles! This is a really great recipe, takes a little time to do, but
it is worth it....serve with either Thai rice, or noodles, this time
for us it will be noodles, garnished with pickled ginger.

Heat a wok to HOT add 2 tbls peanut oil, and stir fry the meat shreds,
until they change color and are cooked....remove and keep warm. Drain
oil and re-heat the wok, add another 2 tbls peanut oil, and heat to
high again, and stir fry the chile paste for a minute and then add
the sauce ingredients, heat to boil and add the tofu, mushrooms, snow
peas, water chestnuts, baby corn, hot peppers, and the reserved
meat...heat this through, for about three minutes, long enough to
cook the vegetables, add the peanuts and serve with either rice or
noodles. If this is not thick enough, add cornstarch and water
mixture 1-1 until thickened then serve immediately. This one is a
combination of Nina Simond's recipe and my additions and
changes....it is a very delightful Szechuan Chinese(or Hunan) dish.
Enjoy!
