Ingredients

400gleftover Mongolian beef with sticky rice, chilled (see link to recipe below)
4 tbspmayonnaise
2 tbspSriracha
1 tspblack sesame seeds
4seaweed wraps
wasabi paste
½cucumber, peeled, seeds removed and thinly sliced

Method

First make the Mongolian beef with sticky rice .

Start by putting the leftover beef and rice in a bowl with the mayonnaise, Sriracha and sesame seeds. Mix through well and set aside.

Take a sheet of seaweed and place down on the worktop, then spoon a quarter of the mixture into the centre. Shape the rice mixture so you have a roughly 7cm square.

Squeeze some wasabi on top and spread into a thin layer, then place some cucumber slices on top of that. Now encase the rice with the edges of the seaweed. You should have a neat square. Use a little water on the end of your fingers to stick the sides down. Wrap in clingfilm and make the other three.

These are best eaten the next day for lunch, giving the seaweed some time to soften.

Tip: If you can’t get hold of wasabi or you don’t like it but still want that kick of heat, you can use English mustard instead. Or how about trying horseradish?
