Cooking Instructions:
  • 1. TO PREPARE THE CARROT AND EDAMAME SALAD:

    Peel and trim the ends off the carrot. Make ribbons by pulling a peeler the full length along the carrot, rotating after each peel and place into a bowl. Roughly chop the coriander, including the stalks then add to the bowl with the edamame and sliced red and green cabbage. Just before serving, pour over the Korean salad dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.

  • 2. TO PREPARE THE CHICKEN:

    Remove the free-range chicken thighs from their packaging and pat dry with a paper towel. Cut each thigh into 4 even pieces and place into a bowl with the cornflour and toss to coat. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the chicken and cook for 3-4 mins on each side or until cooked through then pour in the Korean fried chicken sauce. Remove from the heat and toss to coat.

  • 3. TO HEAT THE RICE:
