• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut eggplant into quarters lengthways, then deeply score the flesh to make a criss-cross pattern. • Place eggplant on lined oven tray, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle over sweet soy seasoning and season with salt.

• Drain pickled radish. • Divide cucumber slaw between bowls. • Top with pickled radish and sweet-soy eggplant. • Garnish with crispy shallots. • Drizzle over sesame dressing to serve. Enjoy!
