    they look tasty. if you havent’ had “si ji dou”, a.k.a. dry-cooked sichuan green beans, they are reminiscent of this

      si ji dou is probably better imo but it seems like it has a more elaborate sauce and the addition of pork makes it more of a meal, I can’t add pork to this since it’s just a vegetable side dish, can’t just throw meat into it even if I’d eat it

      I’ve been wanting the chef to get szechuan peppercorns but it hasn’t happened yet, I forgot and he probably won’t unless I badger him

      oh you know what’d probably be dope as a vegan dish? basically the exact same thing as si ji dou but with mushrooms instead of the pork…

        mushrooms are a good idea, depending on texture. I bet a little bit of TVP or something could stand in for the minced pork
