- Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat and fry the mince for 7-8 mins, stirring regularly, until just crisp. Add the white parts of the spring onion, the ginger, garlic and half of the Szechuan pepper and cook, stirring, for 2 mins. Add the chilli oil, soy sauce, peanut butter and chicken stock. Stir to combine, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer gently for 3 mins.
- Cook the noodles to pack instructions, then drain and divide between 6 bowls. Spoon over the mince and broth. Scatter with the remaining Szechuan pepper, spring onion greens and crushed chillies to serve.
