Cooking Steps

Cook the fries
1

• Cut potato into fries. • Set air fryer to 200°C. • In a medium bowl, combine fries, sweet soy seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. • Place fries into the air fryer basket and cook for 10 minutes. • Shake the basket, then cook until golden, a further 10-15 minutes. TIP: No air fryer? Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries and season as above. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

2

• Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, slice cucumber and carrot into ribbons. • Cut Japanese tofu into 2cm chunks. 

Cook the tofu
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. 
• Add tofu and cook, tossing until browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add garlic stir-fry sauce and the soy sauce, turning tofu to coat, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate to rest.

4

• Meanwhile, place gua bao buns on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. • Microwave on high for 1 minute. Set aside to rest for 1 minute.

5

• In a second medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber, carrot and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.

6

• Thinly slice steak. • Uncover, then gently halve bao buns and spread with some garlic aioli. Fill buns with some rainbow ribbon salad and glazed tofu. Drizzle over any remaining sauce from the pan. • Bring everything to the table. Serve with seasoned fries, remaining salad and aioli. Enjoy
