  • Water – 1 1/2 Cups, boiling
  • Maple Syrup – 1/4 Cup
  • White Vinegar – 1 Cup
  • Salt – 1 tbsp
  • Bread Roll – 4 pc, crusty on the outside, soft on the inside

  • Fresh Coriander – Handful, chopped
  • Fresh Red Chili Pepper – 3 pc, preferably Bird’s Eye or Thai, thinly sliced
  • Method

    – In a large bowl, dissolve the salt and maple syrup in the hot water. Stir in the vinegar. Add carrots and radish – they should be only just submerged. Leave for 2 hours until slightly wilted and ‘pickled’, then rinse off and set aside.

    – Slice the bread rolls across, but don’t cut all the way through.

    – Spread the top half with the butter. Spread the base with a generous dollop of the pate followed by a generous dollop of the mayonnaise.

    – Line the inside of each roll with the lettuce and pile on the shredded chicken. Sprinkle with a generous helping of salt. Repeat with the remaining rolls.

    – Stuff each sandwich with the pickled vegetables, green onion and coriander. Finish off with the chili, as much or as little, according to preference.
