Sichuan is famous for the mountains of chillies and Sichuan pepper that feature in much of its cooking. Historically, Sichuan was known as one of the Four Great Culinary Traditions in China, alongside the food of Jiangsu, Guangdong and Shandong. Mouthwatering chicken is one of the most popular dishes of the Sichuan region and a perfect balance of tongue-tingling textures and flavours, as well as making a spectacular centrepiece for this Sichuan meal. We’re serving it here with fragrant garlic aubergine, a delicious crispy sesame tofu dish and rice cooked in the fragrant chicken stock.

5/5

This one had been sitting at the back of the 'to be used' box of subscription boxes. I always thought me and my husband hated Tofu - well now we're converted. The chicken was brilliant but it was the crispy crunchy coated tofu we fought over for the last piece. I've not quite managed to get him converted to aubergines but all the more for me. O

It's great to hear that this spicebox surprised you, and converted you both to become tofu lovers - once coated in the perfect seasoning and crisped up, it really is so delicious!
