Instructions

  • Whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce,Add cornflour, water and sugar and whisk vigorously until it has completely dissolved. Heat a tbsp of oil in a large skillet. Sauté the chopped onions until they turn translucent. Add the garlic, ginger, peppercorns and chopped chillies and sauté until fragrant. Add the vinegar-based mixture and stir, cooking until the sauce thickens. You can also add a splash of water if you need to thin the sauce down a tad to a pourable consistency. Remove from heat. Preheat the oven to 180C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, greasing well to ensure the fries don’t get stuck to the pan. Clean and peel the sweet potatoes, cutting them into the shape of fries. Add the fries to a mixing bowl. Drizzle with oil, cornflour sea salt and a crack of black pepper, tossing together until the fries are lightly and evenly coated. Arrange the fries in a single layer and bake for 20 – 30 minutes, removing the tray at the half way mark and rotating it before putting it back in the oven to finish baking evenly through. Remove once the fries are crisp and baked to a golden perfection. Set aside. Cook the brown rice. Heat a tbsp of sesame oil in a non-stick skillet, slowly adding the veggies. Sauté until cooked but with a firm bite, before seasoning with salt and pepper as per taste. heat the remaining tbsp of sesame oil in another pan. Coat the tofu in a bit of cornflour and pan-fry until firm and golden on both sides. Grease your sizzler pan with butter and line it with cabbage leaves before heating it over a low flame. While it is heating up, arrange the rice, veggies, baked sweet potato fries and tofu. Heat the sizzler sauce. Once the sizzler pan is searingly hot, pour over the sizzler sauce. Switch off the gas and add a bit more melted butter along the sides of the pan for an extra sizzle. Lift the pan very carefully, placing it on the wooden tray and serve immediately.
