All Schezwan Sauce is essentially the same, small variances due to taste preferences and regional experiences. I would recommend taking a standard such as this:
Ingredients for Chinese Schezwan Sauce
25 red chillies (dried)
3 bulbs garlic, flaked and peeled
10-15 flakes garlic finely chopped
3 green chillies finely chopped
2" piece ginger, peeled and grated
2 white onions finely chopped
1 stalk celery finely chopped
2 tsp. cornflour
1 tbsp. brown vinegar
1 tbsp. sugar
1 tbsp. oil
2 pinches ajinomoto (optional)
Directions for Chinese Schezwan Sauce
Boil garlic and red chillies in 2 cups water, for 5 minutes.
Drain water, keep aside.
Grind chillies,garlic to a paste.
Heat oil in a heavy pan.
Add ginger, chopped garlic, chopped chillies, stir.
Add celery, onions, stirfry till onions are transparent.
Add paste, stirfry for 2-3 minutes.
Dissolve cornflour in 2 tbsp. water.
Add all other ingredients, and drained water from chillies.
Bring back to boil, stirring continuously.
Simmer for 2-3 minutes, till sauce is thick and smooth.
Bottle, cool, refrigerate, use in Chinese cooking as required.
alter what ever you wish and see how it comes out. Good Luck!
