Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Toast sesame seeds
2
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast for 2-4 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.)
  • Transfer to a plate.
Prep
3
  • Cut any large pieces of broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
  • Thinly slice green onions, keeping greens and whites separate.
  • Peel carrot, then cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds.
  • Halve then core peppers. Cut into 1/2-inch-thick pieces.
  • To a medium bowl, add ketchup, half the Worchestershire sauce, half the oyster sauce, 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water and 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar. Stir to combine. (This is your sauce mixture.)
Cook veggies
4
  • Reheat the same pan from step 1 over medium-high. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, broccoli, carrots and peppers and 1/4 cup water. (NOTE: For 4 servings, cook in 2 batches, with 1 tbsp oil and 1/4 cup water per batch.) Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring cocasionally, until tender-crisp.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in remaining oyster sauce. Transfer to a plate. Cover to keep warm
  • Wipe out pan.
Form and cook hambagu patties
5
  • While veggies cook, to a large bowl, add turkey, half the panko (use all for 4 servings) green onion whites and remaining Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper, then combine.
  • Form mixture into 2 (4) 5-inch-wide patties. Lightly press a thumbprint halfway into each patty. (NOTE: Don't push all the way through.) 
  • Heat the same pan over medium.
  • When hot, add patties to the dry pan. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook patties in 2 batches if needed.) Pan-fry for 3-5 min per side, until cooked through.**
Finish and serve
6
  • Pour sauce mixture over patties in pan. Cook for 1-2 min, flipping patties once or twice to coat, until sauce thickens slightly.
  • Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in half the sesame seeds.
  • Divide rice between plates.
  • Top with veggies, then hambagu patties.
  • Spoon any remaining sauce from pan over patties.
  • Sprinkle remaining green onions and remaining sesame seeds over top.
