- 2 tbsp vegetable oil

- 2 tbsp Cooks’ Ingredients Japanese Rice Vinegar
- 1½ tsp light brown soft sugar
- ½ cucumber, thinly sliced
- 25g salted peanuts, finely crushed to a powder

Method
Cut the aubergine into 5cm fingers. Warm the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the aubergine and fry for 6 minutes, turning until golden on all sides.
Mix the teriyaki sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar and 1 tsp sugar together in a small bowl until smooth, then pour over the aubergine. Turn the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes until the aubergine is tender and the sauce is sticky and reduced.
Mix the cucumber with the remaining vinegar and mix the peanuts separately with the remaining sugar.
Heat the buns according to pack instructions, fill with the sticky aubergine, drizzle over any remaining sauce, then add some cucumber and salad onions and sprinkle over the peanut dust. Serve immediately, with the remaining cucumber and salad onions alongside.
