Cooking Steps

Preheat the oven to 200°C.
In a small bowl, combine the gochujang* with the East Asian-style sauce.
Julienne the carrot (cut into matchsticks) and transfer to one side of a parchment-lined oven rack. Drizzle with half of the gochujang.
On a deep plate, combine the panko with the sesame seeds.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise with the Korean-style spices.
Pat the chicken dry with kitchen paper. Season generously with salt and pepper, then coat with half of the mayonnaise.
Coat the chicken with the panko, then transfer to the oven rack.
Drizzle with sunflower oil and bake for 10 - 12 minutes, or until golden-brown and done.

In a salad bowl, combine the cabbage with the soy sauce and the rest of the mayonnaise (or add more if preferred).
Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the bao buns on one side for 1 minute.
Flip the bao buns and add the water (see pantry for amount).
Cover with the lid and steam for 2 - 3 minutes.
