Even though I’m Chinese, I never encountered a zucchini dish quite like this where I grew up. Here’s why I love it:

  • Added Szechuan Peppercorn: For that authentic Szechuan kick.
  • Added Dried Hot Pepper: To spice things up.
  • Tweaked the Garlic: Changed the way garlic is used to enhance the taste.
