Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm fries. Spread the fries over an oven tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle with the mixed sesame seeds, season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat, then bake until tender, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: Cut the potato to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time!
While the fries are baking, thinly slice the red onion (see ingredients list). In a small bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Scrunch the onion in your hands, then add to the pickling liquid. Add enough water to cover, then set aside until serving time.
In a small bowl, whisk the dark roasted peanut butter, water, a generous squeeze of lime juice (see ingredients list), the brown sugar and soy sauce. Set aside.
When the sesame fries have 10 minutes cook time remaining, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the Malaysian tofu pieces and cook until browned and warmed through, 2-3 minutes each side. Add the peanut sauce and simmer for 30 seconds, turning the tofu to coat.
Place the bake-at-home burger buns directly on the wire rack of the oven until heated through, 3 minutes. Thinly slice the cucumber.
Drain the pickled onion. Cut the burger buns in half and spread the bases with garlic aioli. Top with the mixed salad leaves, peanutty tofu, pickled onion and cucumber. Serve with the sesame fries.
