Mala is really popular right now! I searched for some great recipes, but since I only had some of the ingredients, I made do with what I could find. This recipe turned out pretty tasty, even though I'm still getting the hang of grilling. Thanks to Prince Coobaacook and Pey for the inspiration!

Steps

Mix the ground Sichuan peppercorns, ground cumin, chili powder, and salt until fragrant and slightly salty to taste. Place the hoisin sauce and chili garlic sauce in separate bowls.
3

Get everything ready. Pour a little oil into a small bowl for brushing during grilling.

Start grilling. Place the skewers on the grill and brush with oil. Grill until almost cooked through, then brush with hoisin sauce and grill a little longer. Sprinkle with the spice mix before serving. For eggplant, also brush with chili garlic sauce for extra flavor.
