Chilli Bean Sauce Toban Djan 368 g – Lee Kum Kee

Lee Kum Kee Chilli Bean Sauce, also known as Toban Djan, is a concentrated Sichuan-style chilli sauce made with salted chilli peppers, fermented soybeans and fermented broad beans. It combines medium heat with a distinctive salty taste and rich umami flavour.

The sauce is an essential ingredient in Chinese and particularly Sichuan cuisine. It is traditionally used to prepare mapo tofu but is also ideal for stir-fries, stews, sauces, soups and marinades. Use it to season meat, tofu, aubergine, vegetables, noodles or rice.

This is a concentrated sauce, so add it gradually according to taste. The manufacturer recommends approximately 1–2 tablespoons for every 300 g of other ingredients. The product is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
