Cooking the ChaiNusssss… Desi Rasta Chinese (Szechwan Sauce)


Call it Desi Chinese, Rasta Chinese, Indian- Style Chinese or simply Chainussss… It is an all time favourite. Although it is among the cheapest possible meals in India I have spent a fortune buying roadside Chinese food. Simply because I want to eat rasta Chinese every single day of my life. One meal to love! Finally, after trying to get the rasta Chinese taste right for seven long years, I can proudly say that I have got it. I am about to share, the most common yet, well kept kitchen secret of India. The Indian Street Chinese recipes, so indulge and enjoy!
