Treat your ingredients with care...
- Sichuan-style sausages — Look for sausages with a good balance of heat and flavor. If you can't find Sichuan-style sausages, you can use regular sausages and add extra Sichuan peppercorns and chili flakes to the dish.
- Chili bean paste — This ingredient adds a unique umami flavor and spiciness. Adjust the amount according to your spice tolerance.
- Sichuan peppercorns — Toast the peppercorns in a dry skillet before crushing them to release their aromatic oils.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra kick of heat, sprinkle some additional crushed Sichuan peppercorns on top before serving.
- If you prefer a milder version, reduce the amount of chili bean paste and Sichuan peppercorns.
- Serve with a side of pickled vegetables to balance the spiciness.
- Experiment with different types of potatoes for varying textures in the mashed potatoes.
- Feel free to add other Sichuan ingredients like dried chili peppers or fermented black beans for additional depth of flavor.
Serving advice
Serve the Sichuan-style Spicy Bangers and Mash hot, allowing the creamy mashed potatoes to soak up the spicy sauce from the sausages. Garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
Presentation advice
Arrange the mashed potatoes on a plate, creating a well in the center. Place the sausages in the well and drizzle the spicy sauce over the top. Sprinkle some crushed Sichuan peppercorns and garnish with fresh cilantro for an attractive presentation.
