Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Make the ginger-garlic water.
  2. Fry the Red-Pepper flakes in oil. This creates smoke if done in a frying pan, so cover it up or else do it with less oil in the microwave. Just buy the pre-made pepper flakes in oil at the Chinese supermarket to save a step.
  3. Chinese sesame paste (ji ma jiang) or Middle-Eastern tahini sauce is normally used. Peanut butter may be substituted if you can't find sesame paste. It's not the same, but it'll do.
  4. Pre-ground Szechuan peppercorns *might* be available at the Chinese supermarket. I haven't looked for it because I make it myself. It's called Hua jiao fen . The peppercorns are called Hua jiao .
  5. Each person can assemble their own noodles using the below toppings. A mound of shredded cucumbers makes it even more delicious.
  6. 1 serving noodles.
  7. 1-2 tbsp Ginger-Garlic Water.
  8. 2 tsp chili flake oil.
  9. 2 tbsp sesame paste.
  10. 1 tbsp scallions.
  11. 1 big pinch roasted Szechuan peppercorn powder.
  12. Add soy sauce, 1/2 tsp black rice vinegar, and sugar to taste. Add one tbsp shredded Szechuan preserved vegetables or a mound of cucumbers. The Szechuan vegetables is the authentic way -.
  13. Bon appetit or Duo chi .
