I am trying to be more paleo, and in many ways I'm succeeding but way too many of my recipes involve rice to give it up! Plus I can't give up sushi - and I won't! *pout*. So I've decided my Amazonian paleo alter ego happens to live next to a natural rice paddy so can gather some rice from time to time as well as being a kick ass huntress & totally working the animal fur bikini (she's my alter ego, she can be however I want!).
Anyway this has been percolating in my mind for a while - it's a fairly common thing in Japan and as the freezer breaking down during the night (grr) the other day meant I had some defrosted burgers to use I thought it was about time I got round to it.
Basically I just cooked some sushi rice in my trusty rice cooker then used the plastic carton the burgers came in* to mould two rice patties which I then pan fried in some garlic oil to make them crispy & give them some colour. Served here with avocado - my favourite way to add a bit of creaminess to savoury dishes without dairy.
*Using the burger carton was a mistake, burgers shrink, rice doesn't! They were way more rice than I needed and I didn't eat it all. Good though! When we get a freezer back I might make some & freeze them - easier than keep cooking bits of rice!
