This recipe posted here is the slightly Indo-chinese and mostly Americanized version... made with authentic sichuan paste. Indo -Chinese type calls for schezwan sauce or ready made red chili paste. Schezwan rice sold here in restaurants include little bit of bean paste and out of many I choose this "AA brand Sichuan Hot pot paste" which worked quite well for this preparation. Also inorder for the rice to look brownish red choice of soy sauce place a big part, so either use dark soy or Kecap manis. This is an Indonesian soy sauce which is a dark sweet soy syrup with molasses.

You may choose any brand dark soy sauce and schezwan paste or sauce. My pick on those two are shown here...... hunt in your local Chinese stores.
