    Spicy Chinese Dan Dan Noodles

    Sichuan Street Food Noodles with Sesame & Pork

    Spicy Chinese Dan Dan Noodles are one of Sichuan’s most famous street food dishes, known for their deep savoury flavour, nutty sesame base and warming chilli heat. Traditionally served from street stalls in Chengdu, these noodles combine a rich sesame paste dressing with spicy minced pork and preserved vegetables for layers of texture and umami.

    The balance is key. Nutty sesame paste, savoury soy, gentle sweetness, sharp black vinegar and fragrant chilli oil create the base. On top sits caramelised pork mince with pickled Sichuan vegetable, finished with fresh greens and herbs. When mixed together, the sauce loosens with hot stock and coats every strand beautifully.

    Three Cup Chicken

    Three Cup Chicken is a classic Taiwanese dish made with equal parts soy sauce, rice wine and sesame oil, finished with fragrant basil for a bold, aromatic punch. This Three Cup Chicken recipe focuses on caramelising rock sugar first, searing large chunks of chicken for char, then reducing the sauce until glossy and sticky.

    Despite the name, it is not made with three cups of liquid. The “three cups” refer to equal quantities of soy sauce, rice wine and sesame oil. The final flourish of basil transforms the dish into something intensely savoury, slightly sweet and beautifully aromatic.
