Easy, Sticky Teriyaki Beef Burgers
Ingredients (serves 2):
- 1 packet Lee Kum Kee Ready Sauce Teriyaki Beef
- 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce
- 2 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Premium Soy Sauce
- 2 fresh floured buns
- 250g fillet steak, sliced into 1cm horizontal pieces
- 6 crisp lettuce leaves
- 1 cucumber, cut into angled lengths
- 1 leek (white stalk only), finely sliced into rings
- 1 bunch coriander
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 4 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp sesame seeds
Method:
- Marinate the beef: In a bowl, combine the beef with half the packet of Lee Kum Kee Teriyaki Beef Ready Sauce, Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce, and 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Premium Soy Sauce. Mix well to coat.
- Caramelize the beef: Heat a pan over high heat. Add the beef and cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce is sticky and caramelized.
- Prepare additional sauce: In a small bowl, mix the remaining half packet of Lee Kum Kee Teriyaki Beef Ready Sauce with 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Premium Soy Sauce, 1 Tbsp water, and sesame seeds. Set aside.
- Assemble the burgers: Spread mayonnaise on both sides of the buns. Layer lettuce, carrot, cucumber, coriander, and leek on the bottom bun, followed by the caramelized beef. Drizzle with the prepared sauce.
- Finish and serve: Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
Prawn Toast
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 3 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Hoisin Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Premium Soy Sauce
- ½ Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Pure Sesame Oil
- ½ kg raw prawn meat
- ½ cup sesame seeds
- 4 slices of white bread
- 1 egg
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cm piece ginger, peeled and minced
- 4 spring onion stems, sliced
- Coriander, sliced for garnish
- ½ tsp honey
- 1 red chili, sliced
Method:
- Prepare the prawn mixture: In a food processor, combine the prawns, 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Hoisin Sauce, sesame oil, egg, ginger, and garlic. Pulse until well combined. Stir in sliced spring onions and coriander.
- Prepare the bread: Spread the prawn mixture evenly over each slice of bread, extending to the edges. Press the bread, mixture side down, into sesame seeds to coat.
- Fry the toast: Heat vegetable oil in a pan to 160-170 degrees Celsius. Fry each piece of bread, prawn mixture side down, until golden and crispy. Flip carefully to avoid spilling the seeds and fry the bread side lightly.
- Make the dipping sauce: Mix 2 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Hoisin Sauce, 1 Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Premium Soy Sauce, and ½ Tbsp Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand Oyster Sauce with chili and honey. Adjust consistency with a splash of water if necessary.
- Serve hot, garnished with sliced coriander and accompanied by the dipping sauce.
