Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Cut your potatoes (skins on) into chips
Add the chips to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp

Peel and finely slice your brown onion[s]
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-low heat
Once hot, add the sliced onion with a pinch of salt and cook for 8-10 min or until caramelised
Once done, transfer the caramelised onions to a plate and reserve the pan

Meanwhile, peel and roughly chop your garlic
Combine the chopped garlic, ground paprika, white wine vinegar, bay leaf[ves] and chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) in a large bowl with 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] olive oil
Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and stir it all together – this is your spicy marinade

Slice your portobello mushrooms into 1cm strips
Return the reserved pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil
Once hot, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 10-12 min or until golden

Meanwhile, combine your mustard ketchup and mayo in a small bowl – this is your sweet mustard mayo

Once the chips are almost cooked, add your ciabatta[s] to a baking tray and put the tray in the oven for 3-4 min or until they're hot and crusty
Once done, carefully cut them in half
Wash your salad, then pat it dry with kitchen paper

Once the mushrooms are golden, add the spicy marinade and cook for 2-3 min or until fragrant
Add your Chinese rice wine and cook for 30 secs further, stirring until the mushrooms are coated in the sauce
Once the mushrooms are coated, remove the bay leaf[ves] – these are your Portuguese-style spicy mushrooms

To assemble, spread the sweet mustard mayo on the ciabatta base and top with the Portuguese-style spicy mushrooms and caramelised onions, then finish with the ciabatta lid
Serve the chips and salad to the side
Enjoy!
