MEAL PREP
Boil the kettle. Place the edamame beans in salted boiling water until plumped up, 3-4 minutes. Drain and place in a bowl. Add the spring onion whites, the sliced cabbage, the lemon juice (to taste), and seasoning to the bowl. Toss until combined and set aside. In a separate bowl, loosen the mayo with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
OPEN SESAME
Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until lightly browned, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
VERY VENISON
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the venison chunks and fry until browned, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final minute, add the hoisin sauce. Remove from the pan, place in a bowl, along with the sauce, and cover to keep warm.
NACHOS, IS THAT YOU?
Return the pan, wiped down, to high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, add the wonton triangles and fry until crispy and golden, 30-60 seconds per side. Drain on paper towel and season.
YOU GOT ME WONTON MORE!
Make a bed of wonton nachos. Top with the cabbage salad and the hoisin venison (and any remaining hoisin sauce). Drizzle over the loosened mayo. Sprinkle over the chopped pickled ginger, the spring onion greens, the sliced chilli (to taste), and the toasted sesame seeds. Get munching, Chef!
