    Can substitute roasted unsalted peanuts for chile peanuts.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Simple stir-fried greens; Beef with asparagus and shiitake mushrooms; Mongolian beef; Shrimp with "lobster sauce" (Dong ting shrimp)

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Great recipe. I sought out the chile peanuts she referenced in her notes. I just poured peanuts from the package that happened to also contain some dried red pepper and sichuan pepper. I then also added the optional sichuan pepper. I think I overdid it a bit, and will definitely omit the extra pepper if using same nuts. Simple dish for a weeknight. Served it with fried rice and stir fried bok choy.
