I came up with a "shrimp chili" recipe with atsuage instead of shrimps for my children who are allergic to shrimp.

Add half of the Japanese leek while stir-frying and add the rest at the end, so you can enjoy both its flavor and its crunchy texture.
The chili sauce can be used for regular shrimp chili as well.
Adjust the amount of doubanjiang to your preference. Recipe by Aroha55
