• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into fries. • Place fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with mixed sesame seeds and season with salt. Toss to coat. • Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
Little cooks: Help season the fries and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top!
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.
• Meanwhile, combine miso paste (see ingredients), ginger paste, the brown sugar, the rice wine vinegar and the water in a small bowl. Set aside.
Little cooks: Take the lead and help combine the ingredients for the marinade!
• Roughly chop tomato. Grate the carrot. Roughly chop coriander. Set aside.
Little cooks: Older kids, help grate the carrot under adult supervision!
• When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook chicken thigh, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 10-14 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • In the last 1-2 minutes of cook time, add miso mixture, turning chicken to coat.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is cooking, combine mixed salad leaves, tomato, carrot and coriander in a medium bowl. Add Japanese dressing. • Toss to coat.
• Divide miso-ginger chicken, sesame fries and Japanese-style salad between plates. Enjoy!
