    I used chorizo and thinly sliced pork loin as my pork.Cooked both meats seperately in the same wok. Used chili garlic sauce instead of paste. My wife will not eat hot spicy..I crave it.Chili garlic sauce is not as aggressive as the paste. And since the chorizo set the overall tone did not use peppercorn or chili oil. I will use them when I make it just for me.I also used some of my own personal chicken stock which is flavored with smoked neckbone among other things.
    Spread the chorizo in the middle of the noodles ,spread the sliced stir fried pork loin around the chorizo.Taste and presentation were winners .

    Overall flavor was good but I felt it needed a touch of sugar and a little bit of an acid - or perhaps some pickled cucumber relish.

    I read the reviews before I made this, so I used 2T of the Chile paste and it was still pretty pretty hot. Our lips are still burning. I will make again but next time I'll start with 3/4 T Chile paste. I also could not find the sesame paste and used the peanut butter. Less peanut oil to fry the pork 1/3 cup would be pently.

    This was so hot from the szechuan peppercorns and chili oil that we could not eat it. I only used 5 drops of the chili oil and only 2 teaspoons of the peppercorns fearing the worst. The worst happened anyway. I could tell that the flavor would have been great if I could have gotten past the pain in the back of my throat.

    Emeril does szechuan and nails it. Peanut butter instead of tahini. The szechuan peppercorns are a must. Used lobster base instead of chicken stock.

    I loved this recipe!! Great flavors! I couldn't find chinese sesame paste so I substituted peanut butter (since there is sesame oil in the dish I figured that would be an ok sub. While searching the internet for the sesame paste I can across another version of this recipe, which had no meat but had shredded veggies and bean sprouts. So I don't know which recipe is "authentic". I do know that this dish tastes great, though!
