a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Pop the gyozas onto a baking tray and drizzle with oil. Toss to coat.
b) Bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 10-12 mins. Turn halfway through.
c) Boil a half-full kettle.
d) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with ¼ tsp salt on high heat.
e) Add the rice and cook for 12-13 mins.
f) Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pan. Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve.

a) Meanwhile, trim and peel the carrot. Use the peeler to peel long ribbons down the length of the carrot, stopping at the core.
b) In a medium bowl, combine half the rice vinegar with the sugar for the pickle (see pantry for amount).
c) Season with salt, then add the carrot ribbons. Mix together well, then set aside to pickle.

a) Trim the cucumber, then pop onto a board and use a rolling pin to gently smack it a few times until split. Cut into roughly 2cm chunks.
b) In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sugar for the dressing (see pantry for amount) with half the sesame oil and the remaining rice vinegar.
c) Add the cucumber, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.

a) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
b) Remove the stems from the portobello mushrooms (but leave the mushroom whole).
c) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Fry the mushrooms until golden brown on each side, 5-7 mins.
d) Reduce the heat to medium and fry for an additional 4-6 mins, turning every couple of mins.

a) Once the mushrooms are tender, add the garlic and a drizzle more oil if it's looking dry and fry until frangrant, 1 min more.
b) Once cooked, pop the mushrooms on your chopping board and thinly slice.
c) Return the (now empty) frying pan to medium-high heat and add the hoisin and water (see pantry for amount) to the pan.
d) Simmer until warmed through and thickened slightly, 1-2 mins.

a) When everything's ready, fluff up the rice and stir through the remaining sesame oil. Share the rice between your serving bowls.
b) Top the rice with the mushrooms, gyoza, edamame, pickled carrot and smacked cucumber in separate sections.
c) Pour over the remaining dressing from the cucumber and drizzle the hoisin sauce from the pan over the mushrooms.
d) Drizzle over the mayo (see pantry for amount) and sprinkle with the sesame seeds to finish.
