I want to put my spin on Chinese five spice powder which is simple to make. However had to make a substitution because one of the ingredients is hard to find in the stores other then Amazon. So I placed my order on Amazon and it came yesterday. So next time I make it Inshallah I would use Sichuan peppercorns this will have in it.
In my mortar and pestle I ground 1 pinch of either coriander seeds or black peppercorns in place of Sichaun peppercorns in case you do not have any but if you do have Sichaun peppercorns handy with 1 pinch of fennel seeds, 3 cloves, 1 broken piece each of cinnamon stick and star anise, place them in a mortar and pestle and grind in to a coarse powder.
Use this on any dish you want to add Chinese five spice powder to.
