Sichuan Dan Dan Noodles

Mix the minced meat with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce; the remaining 3 tablespoons will be used for the sauce. Lightly salt the meat and mix. Let rest for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, finely chop the garlic, ginger, and chili pepper. Slice the spring onion into strips.

Heat oil in a wok, add the chopped vegetables except for the green part of the spring onion, and sauté for a while. Once the vegetables are colored, add the meat and sauté until cooked through. During this process, try to break the meat into the smallest possible pieces using a flat wooden spoon.
