Cooking Steps
- Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks.
- Trim the carrot, then quarter lengthways (no need to peel). Chop widthways into small pieces.
- Pop potatoes and carrot onto a lined baking tray. Drizzle with oil then season with salt and pepper.
- Roast on the top shelf of the oven until fork tender, 25-35 mins.
- Trim the cucumber then halve lengthways.
- Bash each half with the bottom of a pot or pan. Thinly slice widthways.
- In a separate bowl, toss the smashed cucumber with 1 tsp sugar (per 2P), soy sauce and the apple cider vinegar.
- Set aside, continuing to stir occasionally.
- In a small bowl, make the glaze by mixing lemongrass paste, miso, sweet Asian sauce and 25ml water (per 2P).
- In a bowl, toss the chicken with salt, pepper and 2 tbsp flour (per 2P). IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from the chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Fry the chicken until cooked through, 8-10 mins. Turn every 2-3 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Add the miso glaze to the pan.
- Cook until slightly thickened, 1-2 mins. Loosen with a splash of water if you feel it's too thick.
- Meanwhile, place the bao buns on a plate (3 at a time). Microwave covered for 1 min.
- Keep covered until serving.
TIP: Haven't got a microwave? Place a large pot with 2cm of water over high heat. Once boiling, place a colander lined with a baking sheet on the pot. Place the bao (3 at a time) on the baking sheet, cover and steam for 3-4 mins.
- Fill each bao bun with a little smashed cucumber and some miso chicken.
- Plate up your baos with the roast veg alongside.
- Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over everything.
- Serve any remaining smashed cucumber salad on the side.
