Bapburger

A Korean burger in which the buns are replaced by two compacted, grilled rice patties, sometimes toasted with sesame. The contrast between the crispy rice and the beef or chicken filling is much loved at Seoul snack stands.

Instructions

  1. Mix the rice with the egg and cornstarch, lightly salted, then shape into four thick patties about 1 cm deep.
  2. Brown the rice patties in an oiled frying pan, about 4 minutes per side, until they have a crispy crust.
  3. Mix the minced meat with the soy sauce, maple syrup, pepper and salt, then shape into four steaks.
  4. Cook the steaks in a hot pan for 3 to 4 minutes per side, depending on how well done you like them.
  5. Cut the cucumber and carrot into thin strips and wash the lettuce leaves.
  6. Melt the cheese on the meat towards the end of cooking if you are using it.
  7. Assemble each burger by layering a rice patty, the lettuce, the meat, the vegetables and the other rice patty.
  8. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve straight away.
