Glutinous rice balls with beef and potato, spiced with cumin and turmeric (FODMAP friendly)

Steamed then pan-fried glutinous rice balls with beef, potato, coriander, cumin, turmeric and oyster sauce .

Ingredients

(Serves 2 as a FODMAP recipe; makes about 8 balls)

• 150g beef mince
• 50g potato, finely diced,  cooked in microwave for 2 minutes, drain off any liquid if required
• 1/2 cup glutinous rice, soaked in hot water for at lease 30 minutes then overnight, drain off any liquid
• 15g coriander, chopped
• 1 small chili, chopped (optional)
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 1 tbsp corn flour
• 2 tsp oyster sauce (skip for a gluten free option)
• salt and black pepper to taste
• cooking oil (I use olive oil)

Method

In a large bowl, mix all ingredients other than the cooking oil. Roll the mixture into 8 balls. The mixture is quite soft – so we will need to give them a good squeeze.

Steam the rice balls in a steamer for 30 minutes; line the balls with baking paper to prevent sticking; Cool the rice balls briefly.

In a frying pan, bring generous amount of cooking oil to medium heat; pan fry the rice balls until slightly brown and aromatic.

Serve warm.
