Cooking Steps

1

• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add jasmine rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

2

• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber. • In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Add cucumber to the pickling liquid with just enough water to cover the cucumber. Set aside. TIP: Slicing the cucumber very thinly helps it pickle faster!

3

• Thinly slice spring onion. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken, sweet soy seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil.

4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Remove pan from heat and add garlic stir-fry sauce (see ingredients) and a splash of water, tossing, until well coated. Transfer to a serving bowl.

5

• In a second medium bowl, combine shredded cabbage mix and a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste.

6

• Drain pickled cucumber. • Bring everything to the table. • Build your own plate with garlic rice, sticky Korean fried chicken, pickled cucumber, cabbage slaw, plant-based kimchi, mixed sesame seeds, spring onion and the mayonnaise. • If you've selected an add-on bundle, serve with blistered bacon green beans. If you've selected add-on modularity, serve with steamed bao buns. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many loved the dish's delicious flavours, especially the garlic stir-fry sauce. Some found it milder than expected; adding honey boosted sweetness.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, with fun assembly at the table. Several enjoyed customising their bowls with additional fresh ingredients.
  • Suggestions: Try adding grated carrot, bean sprouts, or avocado to the slaw for extra freshness and bulk. Consider velveting the chicken for a silkier texture.
  • Portions: Some found the chicken and rice quantities a bit small for four people. Consider increasing amounts for heartier appetites.
  • Leftovers: Toss mayo through the slaw for extra creaminess, and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving for added crunch.
