Cooking Instructions and Tips

Chop the Chips
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).

Pop them onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Make your Meatballs
2

In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, ginger, garlic & lemongrass puree, salt and water for the breadcrumbs (see pantry for both amounts), then add the beef mince.

Season with pepper and mix together with your hands.

Roll into even-sized balls, 5 per person. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

Ready, Steady, Bake
3

Pop the meatballs onto one side of a large baking tray. Lay the bacon rashers on the other side.

When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until both are browned and cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. The meatballs are cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Prep Time
4

Meanwhile, roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

In a medium bowl, combine the sambal (use less if you'd prefer things milder) and mayo. Set aside.

Slice the buns down through the middle (but not all the way through).

When everything's almost ready, pop the buns into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Make the Sambal Slaw
5

Once the buns are warmed, transfer to your plates and spread each with a spoonful of sambal mayo.

Pop the coleslaw mix into the bowl with the remaining sambal mayo, then add half the coriander and toss together. Season with salt and pepper.

Finish and Serve
6

When everything's ready, add some sambal slaw to the buns.

Line each side with a bacon rasher, then spoon in the meatballs. Drizzle with the sweet chilli sauce and sprinkle with the remaining coriander.

Serve on plates with the chips and remaining slaw alongside.

Enjoy!
