Cooking Steps
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 the chips 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.
Meanwhile, trim the baby gem, halve lengthways, then thinly slice.
Trim and halve the cucumber lengthways, then slice it lengthways into thin strips. Stack a handful of the slices at a time and slice them thinly again into matchsticks. TIP: This method of preparing veg is called a 'julienne' cut!
Kids’ step: In a large bowl, combine the rice vinegar, sugar and oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper. Set aside for now.
When the chips have 5 mins remaining, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Drain the prawns.
Once hot, add the prawns. Season with salt and pepper and stir-fry for 4-5 mins.
Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. They're cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
Just before everything's ready, pop the tortillas (2 per person) into the oven to warm through, 1-2 mins.
Stir the teriyaki sauce into the prawns and warm through until piping hot, 1-2 mins.
Toss the baby gem and sliced cucumber through the salad dressing.
Make kid friendly: If your kids aren't keen on dressing, save a portion of the salad for them and mix the rest with the dressing for everyone else.
Build your own: Bring everything to the table so everyone can add the toppings they like best to the tacos - salad, teriyaki prawns and a drizzle of mayo (see pantry for amount).
Spoon any remaining teriyaki sauce over the tacos.
Serve the chips and any remaining salad alongside. TIP: Tacos are best enjoyed eaten by hand - tuck in the end of the tortillas and get stuck in!
