Prepare the Schezwan Sauce Base
Toss and Serve
Replace eggs with 200g of cubed paneer (Indian cottage cheese) or firm tofu. Pat dry before coating in batter and frying.
Use 250g of bite-sized boneless chicken pieces instead of eggs. Marinate the chicken in the batter ingredients for 15 minutes before frying until cooked through.
To make a gravy, mix 1 tbsp of corn starch with 1/2 cup of water to make a slurry. Add this to the wok after the sauces and cook for 1-2 minutes until the gravy thickens.
Feel free to add other quick-cooking vegetables like sliced carrots, baby corn, or different colored bell peppers along with the onions and capsicum.
Eggs are a complete protein source, containing all nine essential amino acids necessary for muscle building, tissue repair, and overall body function.
This dish provides key nutrients like Vitamin B12 and Selenium from eggs, which are vital for nerve function and antioxidant defense, and Vitamin C from capsicum, which boosts immunity.
The combination of protein from eggs, carbohydrates from the batter, and fats from the oil provides a significant energy boost, making it a filling and satisfying appetizer.

Yes. For a healthier alternative, you can pan-fry the battered eggs in a little oil until golden. Alternatively, spray them with oil and cook in an air fryer at 200°C (400°F) for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy. The texture will be slightly different but still very enjoyable.
You can substitute it with a mix of red chili paste (like Sriracha), finely chopped garlic, a pinch of sugar, and a dash of soy sauce. The flavor profile will be different but will still provide a spicy and savory taste.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The eggs will lose their crispiness upon refrigeration. It's best enjoyed fresh. To reheat, use a pan or an air fryer to try and regain some of the crisp texture.
