Notes
Cook’s tip: To toast the sesame seeds, place in a small frying pan over medium heat and cook, stirring, until light golden.
With a twist: Pork and cabbage noodle salad: Omit the potatoes, mayonnaise and water. Reduce the oil to 2 teaspoons. At the end of step 3, thinly slice the pork and toss with the cabbage mixture and 200g dried thick rice noodles, prepared following packet directions. If Baby Coliban (Chat) potatoes are unavailable, use Lady Christl potatoes.
