Before you start

Preheat oven to 180°C | Baking sheet lined with parchment | Deep frying pan | Vegetable peeler | Fine grater

First make the pickle

  • Trim, peel and ribbon the carrot
  • Peel the red onion and cut into fine slices
  • Trim, deseed and cut the peppers into fine slices
  • Peel and coarsely grate the ginger
  • Put the carrot, red onion, peppers, ginger, chipotle chilli flakes, brown sugar and salt into a sealable container and stir to combine
  • Pour the rice vinegar over the vegetables, seal the container, shake to combine and set to one side

Then prepare the vegetables

  • Wash, trim and cut the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks
  • Peel and grate the garlic
  • Cut the button mushrooms into 1cm chunks
  • Warm the rapeseed oil in the frying pan over a medium heat
  • Add the garlic and fry for 30 seconds
  • Turn the heat down and add the white miso, harissa paste, white wine vinegar, brown sugar and stir for 1 minute to form a paste
  • Add the sweet potato and mushrooms to the pan and stir for 2-3 minutes so they're well covered in the paste
  • Take the pan off the heat and transfer the sweet potatoes to the baking tray
  • Put the tray in the oven for 15 minutes
  • Take the tray out of the oven, put the mushrooms on the tray and return the tray to the oven for a further 15 minutes

Roast the vegetables

  • Put the tray in the oven for 15 minutes

Whilst the vegetables are roasting, make the katsu sauce

  • Peel and finely dice the white onion
  • Peel and grate the garlic
  • Prepare the stock
  • Warm the rapeseed oil in a saucepan over a medium heat
  • Add the onions to the pan with a pinch of salt and stir for 4-5 minutes until soft
  • Add the garlic to the pan and stir for 1 minute
  • Turn the heat down and add the soy sauce, sambar seasoning, brown sugar, turmeric, paprika and stir for 1 minute to combine
  • Add the coconut cream to the pan, stir to combine, increase the temperature and bring the sauce to a light simmer
  • Add the stock, stir to combine, bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and stir until the sauce is the consistency of a thick cream

Serve and enjoy!

  • Take the vegetables out of the oven, add them to the sauce and fold to combine
  • Plate up the curry with sticky rice (sprinkled with nigella seeds), edamame beans, a generous helping of the pickled vegetables and a light sprinkle of coriander leaves for garnish and serve
