In reply to Matt.

You definitely could cook the dish with tofu. For the tofu, I recommend using the marinade from this recipe to make it more flavorful: https://omnivorescookbook.com/general-tso-tofu/

This recipe is on regular circulation at our place. We love it. We add sugar snap peas and extra chilli to make it our own. Could this work with firm tofu instead of beef?

Hi,
No Szechuan peppers in the recipe?

This recipe is out of this world delicious, and easy to make. Following your instructions regarding organization and sequence, I was able to present my family with an incredibly better-than-takeout rendition of Sichuan beef. Love it, and will be trying many more of your recipes, including again tonight! Thank you Maggie!

I made this for the second time today. As with most of Maggie’s recipes I don’t modify them. This was very tasty as is. I had all the ingredients on hand so that made it easy. It was just my wife and I and we have enough left over for two more lunch sized meals.

A commenter had the idea of using black bean ,& garlic sauce that sounds good. If your allergic to an ingredient don’t use it.

Hi – imade

Hi, I made this a couple of weeks ago and thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful. Only change was to halve the sugar. Making it again tonight; I will add some sugar snap peas to up the vege content. Thanks for the recipe.

Ok, where is the Szechuan pepper in this so called authentic dish?

When I read this recipe, thought, wow, that’s a lot of sugar and a lot of sauce overall. But the reviews were so positive I decided to make it as written. After making it my reaction was, wow, that was too sweet for my taste, and really a lot of sauce.
This site is so inviting, that all continue to try some other recipes, but unfortunately this one did not hit the mark for me.
