We're big fans of glazing pork rissoles and this Thai version, with sweet chilli sauce and zesty lemon, is one of our best yet. Add a side of sesame fries and creamy slaw, and you've got a dinner that's all kinds of delicious.

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm fries. Place the fries to an oven tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle over 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 potatoes to the correct size so they cook in the allocated time.
While the fries are baking, zest the lemon to get a generous pinch, then slice into wedges. Finely grate the garlic (or use a garlic press) and ginger. Pick and thinly slice the mint leaves. In a medium bowl, combine the sweet chilli sauce, lemon zest and soy sauce.
In a second medium bowl, combine the pork mince, garlic, ginger, mint (reserve a pinch for garnish), fine breadcrumbs, egg, a squeeze of lemon juice and the salt. Using damp hands, shape heaped tablespoons of the mixture into balls then flatten to make 2cm-thick rissoles and transfer to a plate. You should get 5-6 rissoles per person.
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add the rissoles and cook until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. Remove the pan from the heat and add the sweet chilli mixture. Turn the rissoles to coat in the glaze. Add water (1 tbs for 2 people / 2 tbs for 4 people) to the pan and stir to combine.
TIP: The water helps make the glaze saucy and pourable!
In a medium bowl, combine the garlic aioli and a good squeeze of lemon juice. Add the slaw mix to the the dressing and toss to coat. Season to taste.
Divide the sesame fries between plates and serve with the slaw and the Thai rissoles. Spoon over any remaining glaze. Garnish with the remaining mint and lemon wedges.
