Cooking Steps

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potatoes (unpeeled) into 1cm fries. Place on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Add the mixed sesame seeds, season with salt and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat, then bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: Cut the potato to size so it cooks in time.

While the fries are baking, cut the eggplant into 1cm chunks. On a second oven tray lined with baking paper, spread the eggplant in a single layer and drizzle with olive oil (2 tbs for 2 people / 4 tbs for 4 people). Roast until tender, 10-15 minutes.

TIP: Using the right amount of oil will help the eggplant get soft and delicious in the oven.

While the eggplant is roasting, thinly slice the red onion. In a small bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Scrunch 1/2 the red onion in your hands then add to the pickling liquid. Add enough water to cover, then stir to coat. Set aside until serving. Thinly slice the cucumber into batons. Finely chop the garlic.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the remaining red onion and cook until softened, 2-3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the roasted eggplant, garlic, teriyaki sauce (see ingredients), the water and soy sauce. Cook until the eggplant is soft and sticky, 2-3 minutes.

In a medium bowl, combine the slaw mix and sesame dressing. Heat the mini flour tortillas in a sandwich press or on a plate in the microwave for 10 second bursts, until warmed through.

Drain the pickled onion. Take everything to the table to serve. Build your tacos by topping with the sesame slaw, teriyaki eggplant, cucumber and pickled red onion. Garnish with the crushed peanuts. Serve the sesame fries on the side, or add them to your taco!
