I just love Chinese food! But sometimes the ingredients are not available or I simply don't have them at home at all times. But when I found this recipe, I was immediately sold on trying it out! Naturally, I went to an asian supermarket to buy some of the ingredients. I couldn't fine everything, which is why the recipe is a bit different than the linked original one. Also, I decided to change a few bits. Adding additional peanut butter was my idea, because it turns the sauce into something nice and creamy, which distracts a little bit from its spiciness. I can wholeheartedly recommend that you try it out! The peanuts in combination with the spring onions, which you add at the end, will put you on a different level of taste experience. Enjoy and maybe let me know on instagram @jj_cakelaw how you liked it!
