Cooking Steps
• Add the water (for the rice) to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove the pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, peel carrot and cucumber into ribbons (stopping when you reach the seeds in the centre). • Slice lemon into wedges. • In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, the egg, fine breadcrumbs, Asian BBQ seasoning and a pinch of pepper. • Using damp hands, roll beef mixture into mini sausages about 6cm long and 3cm thick (3 per person).
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook beef sausages, gently turning regularly, until browned and cooked through, 10-12 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat and add the honey, turning sausages to coat.
• While beef is cooking, crush long chilli (if using) and garlic with a pestle and mortar, until it resembles a fine paste. • Add fish sauce & rice vinegar mix, the white sugar, hot water and a generous squeeze of lemon juice. Stir until well combined.
TIP: Some like it hot, but if you don’t just hold back on the chilli. TIP: If you don't have a pestle and mortar, you can combine ingredients in a food processor.
• In another medium bowl, combine cucumber and carrot ribbons, mixed salad leaves and sesame dressing. Season to taste.
• Divide rice and cucumber salad between bowls. Top with Vietnamese mini beef sausages. Tear over mint. • Serve with homemade nuoc cham. Enjoy!
