Instructions

COOK RICE

  • In a large pot over high heat add rice and the first measure of water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium or medium-low and cover. Simmer for 12 mins or until water is absorbed. Fluff rice with a fork.

MAKE BATTER

  • Dice chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, whisk together yoghurt, flour, cornflour, first measure of hot sauce (if using), egg and salt and pepper to taste. Add a splash of water if the mixture is too thick. Add panko crumbs to a wide, shallow bowl.

BATTER & COOK CHICKEN

  • Working one at a time, dip chicken into the batter, then dip in the panko, pressing to coat. Heat oil in a large pot or frypan over medium heat. Working in batches, add chicken to the pot and cook until evenly golden and crispy, about 2-3 mins. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

MAKE SALAD

  • Finely slice the lettuce. Julienne or finely slice the cucumber and carrot. Add the lettuce, cucumber, carrot and mung beans (if using) to a large bowl and toss to combine.

MAKE SWEET CHILLI MAYO

  • In a small bowl whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chilli sauce and hot sauce (if using).

TO SERVE

  • Divide salad and jasmine rice between plates, top with the bang bang chicken, drizzle over the Japanese chilli mayo and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
