Preparation

Start by making the watermelon tataki. To do this, cut the watermelon into a block the size of a steak. Place on an oven tray, sprinkle with salt and put in the oven at 200 degrees for 60 minutes.

Remove from oven and put in a sealable bag with all ingredients (soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, etc.). Leave to marinate for at least 4 hours. After marinating, dip the watermelon in a bowl of black and white sesame seeds and fry in the pan for 1 minute per side. Cut into slices and your tataki is ready.

Cook the rice according to the packet and for the mango, put all the ingredients together. Let this too marinate for a while.

Rinse the chickpeas and drain on kitchen paper. Drizzle with some olive oil and the herbs and put in the oven for +- 25 minutes.

For the ginger mayo, grate the ginger into the mayo to taste.

Grab a bowl and spoon the rice with some black sesame seeds on the bottom. Top with the watermelon tataki, avocado, roasted chickpeas, marinated mango, julienne, cucumber and sprinkle the avocado with sesame seeds and chilli flakes. Top with the ginger mayo and your bowl is ready!
