Preparation
1
Roast the Potatoes

  • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Halve the potatoes. Quarter larger pieces. On a lined baking tray, toss with saltpepper and a drizzle of oil.
  • Arrange cut-side down then roast on the top shelf for 15-20 mins.
  • After 15 mins, crush each potato with the bottom of a bowl. Drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice).
  • Return to the top shelf of the oven to cook until crispy and golden, 8-10 mins.

2
Pickle the Radish

  • Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice the radish.
  • Pop into a bowl along with vinegar, 1 tsp sugar (per 2P) and ¼ tsp salt (per 2P).
  • Mix together and set aside, continuing to stir frequently.

3
Make the Slaw

  • Halve the cabbage, cut out the tough core and thinly slice.
  • Toss the cabbage with half the aioli. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Mix 1 tbsp aioli (per 2P) with the sweet chilli sauce and gochujang in a bowl.

4
Bake the Chicken

  • Toss the chicken in the remaining aioli. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Next, toss the chicken in the breadcrumbs.
  • Place on a lined baking tray. Drizzle over a little oil.
  • Bake until golden and cooked through, 20-25 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

5
Warm the Bao Buns

  • Place the bao on a plate (three at a time) and microwave covered for 1 min. 
  • Keep covered until serving.

TIP: You can steam the bao as well. 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 (three at a time) on the baking sheet. Cover and steam for 3-4 mins.

6
Assemble and Serve

  • Fill each bao with some cabbage slaw and chicken.
  • Drizzle with sweet chilli aioli and garnish with pickled radish.
  • Serve remaining slaw and smashed potatoes alongside.
