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.
  • Reserve 1 tbsp of the remaining aioli (per 2P).
  • Mix what's left of the aioli with the sweet chilli sauce and gochujang in a bowl.

4
Cook the Prawns

  • In a bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with salt and pepper.
  • In a separate bowl, toss the prawns with the reserved aioli.
  • Toss the prawns, one at a time, through the breadcrumbs. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw prawns.
  • Place the prawns on a lined baking tray.
  • Drizzle over some oil and cook in the oven for 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque 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 prawns.
  • Drizzle with sweet chilli aioli and garnish with pickled radish.
  • Serve remaining slaw and smashed potatoes alongside.
