This Sibling’s Day is full chaos with a side of noodles ✨ Grace is getting her sister, Hannah, into the studio to bring you her “Busy Girl Dan Dan Mian 担担面 Hack” that you can make with staple pantry ingredients, without the traditional mustard greens or sesame sauce.

Jazz it up however you want, like how Grace did when she didn’t have her sister’s full recipe during her university exchange in Perth. We’re topping this dish off with a fried egg, but feel free to fry up some minced meat or even better – boil up some dumplings together with your noodles as an alternative quick protein fix!
