In your bag
1 bag serves 2 (2 bags serve 4)
Sun Basket is proud to source the organic ingredients indicated below. On the rare occasion we are unable to meet our organic promise, we'll put a note in your bag.
6 ounces Moon Noodles fresh ramen
½ teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns
2 teaspoons red chile flakes (optional)
10 ounces ground pork
1 bunch organic mustard greens or other leafy greens (about ¾ pound)
Sun Basket dan dan noodle blend (gluten-free tamari - cashew butter - honey - toasted sesame oil - rice vinegar - garlic - ginger)
3 tablespoons dry-roasted cashews
3 organic scallions
Instructions
2-serving instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Cook the ramen
Bring a medium sauce pot of water to a boil. Stir in the ramen and cook until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. While the water heats and the ramen cooks, start preparing the rest of the meal.
2
Make the Chile oil
On a cutting board, using a rolling pin or the bottom of a small pot or bowl, lightly crush the Sichuan peppercorns. Transfer the peppercorns to a small heatproof bowl, add as many chile flakes as you like, and stir to combine.
In a wok or large frying pan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons (¼ cup) neutral oil until hot but not smoking. Carefully pour the oil over the peppercorn mixture and let cool. Do not clean the pan.
3
Prep and cook the pork and mustard greens
Cut a small corner from the ground pork packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
Remove any coarse stems from the mustard greens; coarsely chop the greens.
Measure 1 teaspoon (2 tsp) chile oil; set aside the rest for serving.
In the same pan used to heat the neutral oil, add 1 teaspoon (2 tsp) chile oil and warm over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the pork and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until lightly browned but not yet cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the greens and ½ cup (1 cup) water (the greens in batches if needed) and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and the greens are just wilted, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and toss with half the dan dan noodle blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more noodle blend, if desired. While the pork and greens cook, prepare the garnishes.
4
Prep the garnishes
Using the bottom of a bowl or cup, lightly crush the cashews.
Trim the root ends from the scallions; thinly slice the scallions on the diagonal.
Serve
Transfer the ramen to individual bowls and top with the pork and greens. Drizzle with as much remaining chile oil as you like, garnish with the cashews and scallions, and serve.
