4 spring onions, finely sliced, white and green parts separated
2 tsp. Sichuan peppercorns, crushed
1 1/2 tsp. Chinese five spice powder
300 ml chicken stock
1 Tbsp. chilli oil, to taste, we used Lee Kum Kee
2 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
3 Tbsp. dark soy sauce
3 pak choi, roughly chopped
50 g roasted peanuts, chopped
Directions
Step 1Cook the noodles according to pack instructions. Drain and run under cold water to cool completely and prevent them sticking. Set aside.
Step 2Meanwhile, heat sesame oil in a wok over high heat and stir fry pork until dark brown and crispy, about 10min. Add the ginger, garlic, white parts of spring onions, crushed Sichuan peppercorns and Chinese five spice. Fry for 1min, stirring.
Step 3Next, to the wok add stock, chilli oil, vinegar and soy sauce. Cook for 3-4min, stirring frequently, until slightly reduced. Add pak choi, cook for 2-3min until just softened then return noodles to the wok to heat through.
Step 4Divide among four bowls and garnish with peanuts and spring onion greens.
