  1. COOKING 101

    Rinse the potato and green beans. Peel and cut the rinsed potato into bite-sized pieces. Trim and cut the rinsed green beans in half. Peel and grate the ginger and the garlic. Peel and roughly slice ½ the onion. Roughly chop the almonds.

  2. MAKE THE MASH

    Place the potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.

  3. GINGER CHICKEN

    Pat the chicken dry with paper towel and place in a bowl. Toss with a drizzle of oil, seasoning, the NOMU rub, and ½ the grated ginger. Set aside.

  4. ALL THE ALMONDS

    Place the chopped almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  5. GARLICKY GREEN BEANS

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced onion and the halved green beans until starting to char, 4-5 minutes (shifting constantly). In the final minute, mix through the grated garlic. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.

  6. ADD THE ASIAN FLAVOURS

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the seasoned chicken until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside. Return the pan to medium heat with the Asian Sweet Chilli Sauce, the lemon juice (to taste), and the remaining grated ginger. Simmer until reduced and thickened, 2-3 minutes (stirring occasionally). Remove from the heat, season, toss through the cooked chicken until coated, and set aside.

  7. AND IT’S DONE!

    Plate up the creamy mash and serve the sticky golden chicken alongside. Side with the garlic green beans. Finish with a scattering of toasted almonds.
