[@paradigmshift7541]

any good suggestion for substitutes for water chestnut flour and glutinous rice flour? or do you think i must stick with these two?

[@CiCiLi]

You could also replace them with cornstarch. ☺️

[@jamest8158]

How would using only the egg white different than using the whole egg to marinate the chicken?

[@smokyrene7093]

CiCi good evening I don't take chilli can I omit it 😋 and how do u make peppercorns oil? Also instead of frying can I use airfryer too? Apologies for asking to many question.

[@CiCiLi]

Thank you for the question!
- Of course, if you don't like spicy, you don't have to add the chili.
- To make the peppercorn oil, in a small pot over low heat, place in the Sichuan peppercorns, cook until aromatic, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove the peppercorns. There you go some yummy oil!
- Yep. You can use air fryer as well. :)

[@ofelianunez9657]

Do you soak the dried chilies before cooking

[@CiCiLi]

They are washed and dried. I didn't soak them. ☺️

Really nice but iam pure vegetarian.. ✌✌ I prefer paneer Or other thing instead of chicken

[@CiCiLi]

Thank you! You could also replace it with vegetables like cauliflower or zucchini.

[@Allioops810]

Use tofu

[@janourzua]

Good recipe...but canola oil ...??? NOPE...!!

[@CiCiLi]

You could also replace it with other high smoking point oil. :)

[@janourzua]

@@CiCiLi canola is dangerous ,it' s a synthetic oil... that's the point...( Luv ur recipe )
