Stir-Fried Chinese Cabbage with Vinegar

About This Recipe

This Sichuan-style stir-fried Chinese cabbage is a fiery, aromatic delight that brings bold flavors to your table. The dish starts with fragrant Sichuan peppercorns sizzled in hot oil, infusing the base with their signature numbing spice. Scallions, ginger, and garlic add depth, while beautiful chili peppers bring vibrant heat. Crisp Chinese cabbage is stir-fried to tender perfection, then seasoned with a savory-sweet blend of soy sauce, sugar, and a tangy kick of vinegar. A final toss with starch thickens the glaze, creating a glossy finish. For an extra layer of heat, dried red chili peppers are added in the second stir-fry, enhancing the dish’s smoky complexity. Perfect as a side or main, this recipe balances spice, umami, and crunch in every bite. Quick to make yet packed with authentic Sichuan flair, it’s a must-try for lovers of bold, mouthwatering flavors!
