Ingredients For Schezwan Chicken Fry Recipe :
Dry Red Chillies :
Red chilies were introduced to India by Portuguese traders from Mexico. India is now the world leader in the cultivation of dry red chilies. Red chilies are more commonly consumed in hotter regions of India, such as Rajasthan, because they help to keep the blood clean and thin.
Soy Sauce :
Soy sauce is a traditional Chinese condiment that is widely used in East Asia to add flavour to a variety of cooked foods as well as to aid digestion. sauce is made from fermented soybean paste, roasted grain, brine, and the mould Aspergillus oryzae or Aspergillus sojae.
Sesame Seeds :
Sesame seeds complement chicken and other meats, as well as warm salads and salad dressings. They also give stir-fried and rice dishes a distinct flavour. Tahini, a smooth paste commonly used in Middle Eastern dishes, is made from ground sesame seeds.
