open-faced seitan bulgogi burger with a rice patty bun

0
0


This recipe has two sources of inspiration: the first was a recent article in the New York Times Sunday Magazine about Korean bulgogi sliders. The second is a fast-food restaurant I experienced when I was traveling in Japan: Mos Burger. Mos Burger has many interesting things on the menu, including burgers with fried rice patties instead of buns.

I tweaked the bulgogi marinade recipe from the Times article, including substituting seitan for beef. I also tweaked the garnishes a bit, and then created a recipe for the rice patty “bun.”

This recipe is a little spicy, a little salty and a little sweet with a crunchy rice base.
