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, then add them a baking tray (or two!) with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray[s] in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp

Meanwhile, top, tail, peel and grate your carrot[s]
Slice your cucumber into discs on the diagonal
Slice each individual cucumber disc into matchsticks
Chop your coriander finely, including the stalks (save some leaves for a garnish!)

Combine your rice vinegar with 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar in a bowl, then add the cucumber matchsticks, grated carrot and chopped coriander – this is your quick-pickled salad
Bash your Fable pulled mushrooms with a rolling pin to flatten them

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the bashed Fable pulled mushrooms and cook for 5-6 min or until browned

Meanwhile, chop your peanuts very finely – this is your peanut crumble
Combine your tamarind paste and mayo in a bowl – this is your tamarind mayo

Combine your cornflour and red chilli relish in a bowl with the juice of half your lime[s] and soy sauce – this is your sweet chilli sauce
Once the Fable mushrooms are browned, add the sweet chilli sauce with a small splash of cold water and cook for 2-3 min or until the fable mushrooms are glazed and sticky – these are your sweet chilli Fable mushrooms

Pierce your bao bun packet[s] with a few holes and microwave for 1-2 min
Chop the remaining lime into 1 wedge per person

To build your buns, fill each bao bun with a little quick-pickled salad and the sweet chilli Fable mushrooms
Sprinkle over the peanut crumble
Serve the chips and lime wedge to the side with the tamarind mayo and the remaining quick-pickled salad and garnish with the reserved coriander leaves
Enjoy!
