Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and cook over high heat until soft and golden.

Add the jalapeno peppers and the Sichuan peppercorns, and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add the wine and the pureed chiles, and boil for about 5 minutes or until the wine is almost evaporated.

Add the remaining ingredients. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered , for about 30 minutes or until reduced by about half. Strain the sauce and keep warm.

Any remaining sauce can be stored in the fridge for 1 week or frozen for up to 3 months.
