Not bad, I quadrupled the peppercorn.

Glad to hear you enjoyed the dish Patricia! If the dish is too spicy, you can reduce the doubanjiang and maybe add a pinch of ground paprika (adds some smokiness without adding spiciness). Also the Sichuan peppercorns are not spicy and more of a numbing sensation. I hope you can give it a try next time 🙂

Thank you for introducing me to doubanjian! Definitely now my favourite way to prepare cauliflower, which is a vegetable I’ve been experimenting with for some time in soups, roasted, etc.

I should add that the cauliflower was easily prepared in a non-stick 12″ pan while the small broccoli/chicken was done in a smaller non-stick pan. I was careful to prepare the sauces and aromatics in advance as advised and was able to complete the cooking phase along with some white rice in about 15 minutes.

This recipe is now at the top of my sides list.
Combined with a small chicken and broccoli it becomes a superb meal for two.
And finally, doubanjiang is really great stuff.

Normally I would say that cauliflower is pretty blah but with that sauce it really took off.
Had this one and celtuce leaf salad today as a side to a standard barbecued chicken main.
Let me see … what did I do wrong? I reached for the vegetable stock and made beef stock sauce. (I tried to excuse the error by muttering that they look pretty much the same) and nearly forgot the green onions.
Other than that my wife thinks that doubanjiang is “too hot” and I don’t. Doubanjiang is great stuff.
The cauliflower stir fry complemented the barbecued chicken wonderfully. and is worth doing again – beef stock notwithstanding.
If I may, the sauce could be thicker and its not your recipe’s fault that I rate it at 4 stars only at my first try.
Its the beef stock!!

Cheers,

Hi Maggie I tried this tonight and added fermented tofu. It had a lovely savoury salty flavour and your pantry notes on it were absolutely right – like blue cheese in a mild way. Great recipie and great advice. Thank you!

Really tasty – great umami from the bean-chili paste. I used dry amontillado sherry with outstanding results.
