Instructions
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. • Place potato, mixed sesame seeds, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper on a lined oven tray. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• While the potatoes are baking, finely chop garlic. Thinly slice spring onion. Thinly slice pear into wedges. • In a small bowl, combine Japanese dressing and garlic aioli. Set aside.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook diced bacon until golden, 4-5 minutes. • Meanwhile, add the eggs, plain flour, soy sauce and a pinch of pepper to a medium bowl. Whisk with a fork until smooth. • Stir through garlic, shredded cabbage mix, ginger paste and spring onion (reserve a pinch for garnish). • When the bacon is cooked, add to the bowl and mix well.
TIP: Leave the residual oil from the bacon in the pan – it will add to the flavour when cooking the fritters!
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. • When oil is hot, add 1/4 cup of the fritter mixture and flatten with a spatula (3-4 per person). • Cook in batches, until golden, 2-3 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
TIP: Allow the fritters to set before flipping, adding extra oil between batches if needed.
• While the fritters are cooking, thinly slice radish. • In a second medium bowl, combine a drizzle of rice wine vinegar and olive oil. • Add salad leaves, pear and radish. Toss to coat and season to taste.
• Divide Japanese-style bacon and cabbage fritters, sesame potato chunks and pear salad between plates. • Drizzle Japanese aioli over fritters and garnish with reserved spring onion to serve. Enjoy!
