Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Add your waxy potatoes to a heatproof bowl
Tip: Unevenly sized potatoes? Chop any larger potatoes in half!
Cover the bowl with cling film and pierce a few holes in the top with a fork then put the bowl in the microwave for 5-7 min or until the potatoes are fork-tender
Meanwhile, grate your cheddar cheese finely
Trim, then slice your spring onion[s] finely
Add the grated cheese to a medium bowl with half your mayo (save the rest for later!)
Add your kimchi ketchup and half the sliced spring onion (you'll use the rest later!)
Give everything a good mix up until completely combined – this is your cheesy kimchi filling
Once the potatoes are fork-tender, add them to a baking tray (reserve the bowl) and crush with the base of a mug to flatten them
Add a generous drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper to the tray and give everything a good mix up
Put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until the potatoes are crisp and golden – these are your smashed potatoes
Whilst the potatoes are cooking, slice your ciabatta[s] in half
Divide the cheesy kimchi filling between the ciabatta base[s] and spread almost to the edges, leaving a small border
Top with a ciabatta lid – this is your cheese & kimchi ketchup toastie[s]
Wipe the reserved bowl clean and add your carrot & cabbage slaw mix with the remaining mayo, your sesame oil and most of your black sesame seeds (save the rest for garnish!)
Add a pinch of salt, sugar and pepper and give everything a good mix up – this is your creamy sesame slaw
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the cheese & kimchi ketchup toastie[s] and cover with a smaller pan
Add a heavy weight (e.g. several tins) to the top pan and cook for 4-5 min per side, checking occasionally or until the ciabatta is golden and the cheese has melted
Tip: Cooking for 5? Use 2 pans or you may need to do this in batches!
Slice the cheese & kimchi ketchup toastie[s] in half and serve with the smashed potatoes and creamy sesame slaw to the side
Drizzle the potatoes with your sriracha (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and garnish with the remaining black sesame seeds and remaining sliced spring onion
Enjoy!
