Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring the water (for the rice) to the boil. Add the jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
While the rice is cooking, thinly slice the red onion (see ingredients list). In a small bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar, water (for the pickle) and a generous pinch of salt and sugar. Scrunch the onion in your hands, then add to the pickling liquid. Stir to coat and set aside until just before serving.
Finely grate the ginger and garlic. Roughly chop the Asian greens. Thinly slice the cucumber into half-moons. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). In a small bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and sesame oil. Set aside. In a second small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Japanese dressing. Set aside.
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the mixed sesame seeds and toast, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the ginger and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the beef mince and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 3-4 minutes.
Add the carrot and Asian greens to the beef mince and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 minutes. Add the teriyaki sauce mixture and stir until the beef is coated in the sauce, 30 seconds.
Drain the pickled onion. Divide the jasmine rice between bowls and top with the ginger beef, veggies, cucumber and pickled onion. Garnish with the toasted sesame seeds and top with the Japanese mayo.
