Cooking Steps
Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, sprinkle over mixed sesame seeds and toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.
Grate carrot, then squeeze out any excess moisture using a paper towel. Drain bamboo shoots, then roughly chop. In a small bowl, combine plant-based Asian mushroom sauce, the brown sugar, ginger paste and a splash of water.
TIP: Removing the excess liquid from the carrot will help the fritters crisp up in the pan!
In a large bowl, combine plant-based shredded cheddar cheese, carrot, bamboo shoots, garlic & herb seasoning, plain flour, the salt, plant-based milk and a pinch of pepper.
TIP: Lift out some of the mixture with a spoon, if it's too wet and doesn't hold its shape, add a little more flour!
Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. When oil is hot, add heaped tablespoons of the fritter mixture and flatten with a spatula. Cook in batches until golden and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (don't flip too early!). Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. You should get 3-4 fritters per person. Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium heat. Cook sauce mixture until bubbling, 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
TIP: Add extra oil if needed to ensure the fritters don’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
While fritters are cooking, trim and thinly slice snow peas, lengthways. In a large bowl, combine snow peas, shredded cabbage mix and Japanese dressing. Season, then toss to coat.
Divide plant-based carrot and bamboo shoot fritters, sesame fries and snow pea slaw between plates. Spoon Asian mushroom sauce over fritters to serve.
