Instructions
• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic paste until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, trim and roughly chop pea pods. • Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. • In a small bowl, combine teriyaki sauce, the brown sugar and a splash of water.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When the oil is hot, add vegetable gyozas, flat-side down, in a single layer. • Cook until starting to brown, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the gyozas) (watch out, it may spatter!) and cover with foil or a lid. • Cook until the water has evaporated and gyozas are tender and softened, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate and cover to keep warm.
• Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook chicken tenderloins until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. • Remove from heat and add oyster sauce mixture, tossing to coat.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber, pea pods and sesame dressing. Season.
• Bring everything to the table. Divide garlic rice, teriyaki sauce chicken and cucumber sesame salad between bowls. • Serve vegetable gyozas with Japanese style dressing and pickled ginger. Sprinkle sesame seeds over chicken to serve. Enjoy!
