Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Guangxi-style spicy sausage — Ensure the sausage is sliced evenly to ensure even cooking and distribution of flavors.
  • Red chili peppers — Adjust the amount of chili peppers according to your spice preference. Remove the seeds for a milder heat.
  • Soy sauce — Use low-sodium soy sauce if you prefer a less salty dish.
  • Rice vinegar — Substitute with apple cider vinegar if rice vinegar is not available.
  • Fresh cilantro — Rinse the cilantro thoroughly and pat it dry before using it as a garnish.

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra kick of heat, add a few dashes of chili oil to the stir-fry.
  • Customize the vegetable selection by adding other Guangxi favorites such as bamboo shoots or water chestnuts.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and add it to the stir-fry during the last minute of cooking.
  • Experiment with different types of sausage for unique flavor variations.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
