Beef Patties With Thai-Style Sauce image

I found the original recipe in a recipe booklet published by a supermarket chain. It's very basic and a good midweek main meal. I changed the recipe to my taste, as the original was too bland. Once you have the few ingredients at hand it's easy to make. It's also a good recipe to make ahead, as the flavours will definitely improve over a day or so. The original recipe suggested ground ostrich meat or chicken as a good alternative to beef. Most of our shops sell dried breadcrumbs, which is what I used.

Time 35m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

18 ounces ground beef (500 g. Or sub with ground chicken or ostrich)
1/2 cup spring onion, chopped (green onions)
1 tablespoon garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 tablespoon cilantro, finely chopped
1 hot pepper, small, finely chopped (leave out seeds for a milder taste)
3 tablespoons breadcrumbs, dried
1 teaspoon salt (level)
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons oil (for frying)
2 tablespoons oil (for frying, or less)
1/2 cup spring onion, chopped (green onions)
1 tablespoon garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon ginger, fresh, finely chopped
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon hot pepper, finely chopped (use less (or more)
1 cup coconut milk (250 ml)
3 ounces peanuts, crushed (100g, or use cashews, roasted)
2 tablespoons soy sauce (30 ml)
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • For the patties, start with the ground meat, then mix in the rest of the ingredients.
  • Turn round and round until well mixed. If the mixture is too dry (it should be just right) add a teaspoon or so of milk or water.
  • Form fairly small patties (you'll have 7 or 8), and fry in a little oil in a pan, over medium-to-low heat, turning once, until brown on both sides. Remove to an oven dish and keep pan on the hob.
  • For the sauce, add oil to the same pan (there won't be enough left over).
  • Add the spring onions, garlic, ginger, cumin and pepper to the hot oil, and stir briskly for about half a minute, just to bring out the flavour.
  • Add the coconut milk, stir in the soy sauce and sugar, and add the nuts of your choice.
  • Let it simmer briskly, while stirring, for a short while -- it should thicken.
  • Ladle the sauce over the patties, OR serve the sauce separately.
  • Serve with rice (brown basmati is nice) and an Asian-type green such as chopped, steamed pak choy or tatsai or Chinese cabbage, seasoned with soy sauce instead of salt.

I found this recipe to be a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by reducing the amount of chili paste in the sauce.
