Dan Dan Noodles (担担面), or dàndànmiàn, translates to "carrying-pole noodles," a name inspired by the vendors who originally sold this dish from poles balanced on their shoulders. This versatile and adaptable Chinese Sichuan dish features a spicy chili sauce, noodles, and a mix of minced meat and vegetables. The dish is known for its "mala" (麻辣) flavour, which combines the numbing sensation ("ma") from Sichuan peppercorns with the spiciness ("la") of both the peppercorn and chili oil.
