How to Make Addictive Dan Dan Noodles

Boil 200g egg noodles in salted water until al dente, about 4-6 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons sesame paste, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons chili oil, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic until smooth.
Heat a pan over medium heat, add 150g ground pork, and break it apart as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the prepared sauce into the pan with the browned pork. Stir well to coat all meat and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Add the cooked noodles into the pan, folding softly to coat every strand without breaking them.
Transfer the saucy noodles and meat mixture evenly into serving bowls.
Sprinkle chopped green onions, roasted peanuts, and optionally Sichuan peppercorns on top.
Sample your creation and adjust heat or nuttiness as desired.
Enjoy your Addictive Dan Dan Noodles hot.
