Spice Bag Fable Mushroom Loaded Fries With Curry Sauce

Preheat the oven to 240ºC/ 220ºC (fan)/ gas 9

Cut your potatoes (skins on) into chips and add them to a baking paper-lined baking tray (or two!) with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt

Give everything a good mix up and put the tray[s] in the oven for an initial 10 min

While the potatoes are in the oven, deseed your peppers (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and cut into thin strips

Cut your spring onion[s] into quarters

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

After the initial 10 min, remove the tray[s] from the oven and add the sliced peppers, quartered spring onions and chopped garlic

Add a small drizzle of vegetable oil and sprinkle over your chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), 2/3 of your five-spice mix (you'll use the rest later!) and 1/2 tsp [3/4 tsp] [1 tsp] sugar

Give everything a good mix up and put the tray[s] in the oven for 18-22 min or until everything's tender and slightly charred – these are your five-spice vegetables

While the vegetables are in the oven, bash your fable mushrooms roughly with a rolling pin

Add your fable mushrooms to a medium bowl with the remaining five-spice mix, half of your cornflour (you'll use the rest later!) and a pinch of salt and pepper

Mix everything together – this is your coated five-spice fable mushrooms

Boil half a kettle

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a very generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the coated five-spice fable mushrooms and cook for 10-12 min or until crispy, turning occasionally – this is your crispy five-spice fable mushrooms

When everything's nearly ready, add the remaining cornflour and your curry powder to a small bowl with your ginger & garlic paste and half your vegetable stock mix (save the rest for later!)

Gradually stir in 140ml [180ml] [240ml] boiled water (this is to ensure there's no lumps!) – this is your curry sauce mix

Put the curry sauce mix in the microwave for 2 min or until thickened, stirring half way – this is your curry sauce

Remove the five-spice vegetables from the oven and add the crispy five-spice fable mushrooms with the remaining vegetable stock mix

Mix everything together until fully coated – this is your five-spice fable mushrooms, peppers & chips
