Cooking Steps

Cook the eggplant
1

• Use an air fryer! Cut eggplant into 1cm chunks. In a medium bowl, combine eggplant, a pinch of salt and a generous drizzle of olive oil. • Set your air fryer to 200°C. Place eggplant into the air fryer basket and cook for 10 minutes. Shake the basket, then cook until tender, a further 5-10 minutes. TIP: no air fryer? Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut eggplant into 1cm chunks. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

Get prepped

• Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, peel carrot into ribbons. • In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. Add carrot to pickling liquid with enough water to just cover carrot. Set aside. • Slice avocado in half, scoop out flesh and cut into halves.

Cook the pork
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook pork mince, breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add sweet soy seasoning and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Remove pan from heat, add the honey, and a splash of water. Stir through the eggplant. Season to taste.

Finish & serve
4

• Drain pickled carrot. • In a medium bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrot, Asian chilli dressing and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide salad and avocado between bowls. Top with honey-soy pork and eggplant. • Sprinkle over crispy shallots. Tear over coriander to serve. Enjoy!
