FRIED RICE BURGER
Recipe by Annette Tan

Serves 2 to 4

INGREDIENTS
2 tbsp canola oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
100g shabu shabu beef
2 tbsp light soy sauce
2 tsp mirin
1 tsp sugar
2 cups cooked white rice
2 spring onions, chopped
A small handful of coriander, chopped
2 eggs, lightly beaten

DIRECTIONS

  1. Heat 1 tbsp of canola oil in a frying pan. Fry the onions until soft, for about 6 min.
  2. Add beef, soy sauce, mirin and sugar. Stir-fry for 5 min, until the beef is just cooked. Transfer it to a sieve to drain the juices.
  3. Mix the rice, spring onions, coriander and eggs in a bowl.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp canola oil in a small non-stick pan over high heat. Spoon 2 tbsp of the rice mixture onto the pan and press to flatten. Cook for 3 min till crisp and golden.
  5. Flip and cook for another 6 min until the underside is crisp. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the rest of the rice.
  6. Place the beef mixture between 2 rice cakes and serve immediately.

TIP Instead of beef, you can use shredded roast chicken or teriyaki chicken available in the freezer section of supermarkets.
