SWEET POTATOES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the sweet potato pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).
MAKE THE MARINADE
In a large bowl, combine the grated ginger, the grated garlic, the sesame oil, and the gochujang (to taste). Pat the kassler steak dry with paper towel. Using a pair of kitchen scissors or a knife, make a few shallow incisions along the fat to prevent the kassler from buckling during frying. Toss the kassler through the sesame marinade and set aside.
SALAD BALLAD
In a separate bowl, combine the juice from 1 lemon wedge, a drizzle of olive oil, the sliced onion (to taste), ¾ of the chopped coriander (to taste), the chilli flakes (to taste), and seasoning. Just before serving, toss through the roasted sweet potato pieces.
CRISPY KASSLER
Place a pan over medium-high heat. When hot, sear the kassler (reserving any marinade left behind), fat-side down, until crispy, 3-5 minutes. Flip the kassler and sear until browned, 3-4 minutes per side. After flipping, pour over the reserved marinade and simmer for the remaining cooking time.
AND THE RESULT…
Plate up the sweet potato salad alongside the sticky glazed kassler, drizzled with any remaining pan juices. Garnish with the remaining chopped coriander.
