Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat a pan on medium with ½ tbsp cooking oil. While it's heating, pat 450 g protein of choice with kitchen paper to dry the surface, then sprinkle with salt and pepper, and 1 tbsp potato starch.
  2. Once the pan is hot, add the protein and fry on both sides until browned and almost cooked through. If you're using a protein with skin, fry the skin-side down first and flip once it becomes crispy.
  3. While it cooks, take a small bowl and mix together 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp cola, ½ tbsp honey, 1 tsp sugar, 2 tbsp water and ⅛ tsp dashi granules.
  4. Pour the sauce into the pan and move the protein around the pan to coat it. Flip once or twice to ensure both sides pick up the sauce, alternatively, you can baste it. Continue to cook until the sauce has become thick and glossy.
  5. Garnish with finely chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy!
