How to Make Szechuan Fish Noodles

  1. Cut 1 lb fish fillet into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, combine the fish with 2 tbsp cornstarch, 1 egg white, and 1 tbsp rice wine. Gently mix.
  2. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the fish and stir-fry for 1 minute until lightly browned.
  3. Pour in any remaining marinade from the bowl and add 1 tbsp rice wine. Stir to combine.
  4. Add 1/2 cup water chestnuts (sliced) and 1/2 cup bamboo shoots (sliced) and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
  5. Remove the fish mixture from the wok and set aside. Wipe the wok clean. Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in the wok.
  6. Add 2 stalks spring onions (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 1-inch piece of ginger (minced). Stir-fry for 20 seconds until fragrant.
  7. Add 2 tbsp fermented black bean paste, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1/2 cup chicken stock. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
  8. Return the fish mixture to the wok.
  9. Meanwhile, cook 8 oz egg noodles according to package directions. Drain well and add to the wok.
  10. Toss everything together until the noodles are heated through and coated in the sauce.
  11. Serve immediately in warmed bowls. Garnish with extra spring onions (optional).
