Total Time:10
Yield:1 servings
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
200g ground beef
½ scallion, white part only
½ tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp mirin
½ tbsp sugar
Cooking oil, for the pan
Optional Ingredients
½ onion
¼ carrot
½ tbsp glutinous rice flour
Instructions
Cut the white part of the scallion lengthwise into quarters, then finely chop. Finely chop the onion and carrot if using.
Place the ground beef in a bowl and add the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and minced garlic.
Mix and gently knead by hand until the seasonings are evenly distributed. Mix in the glutinous rice flour if using.
Add the chopped vegetables and mix well. Shape into patties, keeping them relatively thin so the centers cook through.
Add cooking oil to a pan and cook the patties over low heat, pressing them down firmly with a spatula. Flip and continue cooking until fully cooked through.
Transfer to a plate and serve.
Notes
Vegetables: Finely chop the vegetables so they cook through. A food chopper can help.
Optional additions: Scallion alone is enough. Leave out the onion and carrot or use other vegetables that aren’t too watery.
Glutinous rice flour: Adding ½ tbsp can help the patties hold together.
