Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Prepped
1

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

Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel). Trim the aubergine, then cut into roughly 2cm pieces.

Pop the wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

Pop the aubergine onto another baking tray. Drizzle with oil and toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

Pickle the Onion
2

When the oven is hot, roast the wedges on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins.

Roast the aubergine on the middle shelf until soft and golden, 20-25 mins. Turn both halfway through.

Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion.

Pop half the onion into a small bowl with the cider vinegar and sugar for the pickle (see pantry for amount). Add a pinch of salt, mix together, then set aside.

Slice and Chop
3

Trim the baby gem, halve lengthways, then thinly slice widthways.

Cut the lime into wedges. Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

Mix the Sauce and Mayo
4

In a small bowl, mix together the miso paste, teriyaki sauce and half the sesame seeds. Set your sauce mixture aside.

Combine the remaining sesame seeds and mayo in another small bowl. Set the sesame mayo aside until serving.

Glaze the Aubergine
5

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the remaining onion and fry until softened, 4-5 mins.

Pour in the miso sauce and allow it to bubble away until slightly thickened, 2-3 mins, then remove
from the heat.

Once roasted, add the aubergine to the sauce and carefully stir to glaze it.

Pop the tortillas (3 per person) onto the (now empty) aubergine baking tray and into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.

 

Assemble your Tacos
6

When everything's ready, lay the tortillas onto your plates and spread each with some sesame mayo.

Top with the lettuce and squeeze over a little lime juice. Spoon over the glazed aubergine, then finish with the coriander and pickled onion - as much as you'd like.

Serve with the wedges and any remaining lime wedges alongside. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - get stuck in!

Enjoy!
