Recipe makes for 2 Servings

125g dried standard thick wheat noodles (lo mein)

1 litre chicken stock

1 tbsp Chinese rice wine or dry sherry

1cm piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and sliced

1 tsp five spice powder

½ Chinese roast duck, boned and chopped into bite-sized pieces 

300g choy sum, sliced

2 spring onions (green and white parts), thinly sliced

2 tsp toasted sesame oil


Directions:

Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions. Drain in a colander and rinse thoroughly with running cold water to prevent further cooking. Set to one side in the colander so that any residual water continues to drain.

Pour the chicken stock into a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the rice wine, ginger and five spice. 

Turn the heat down to medium-low, cover with a lid and leave to simmer gently for 20 minutes.

Just before the end of the simmering time, reheat the noodles by placing the colander in the sink and pouring a kettle of boiling water over them. Shake the colander to drain the noodles, then divide them between 2 noodle bowls.

Add the duck pieces and choy sum to the simmering stock and heat for 2–3 minutes – just enough time to warm the duck and wilt the choy sum – then ladle over the noodles. 


Top with the spring onions and drizzle over the sesame oil. Serve immediately, with chopsticks and Chinese spoons.
