Cooking Steps

Quick Prep
1
  • Boil a half-full kettle. Pour it into a saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.
  • Boil the rice, 10-12 mins. Once cooked, drain, pop back in the pan and cover.
  • Meanwhile, heat a frying pan on medium-high heat.
Get Frying
2
  • Once hot, fry the pork mince, 5-6 mins. Break up the mince as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
  • Meanwhile, grate the cheese.
  • In a bowl, mix together the burger sauce and coleslaw mix. Season with salt and pepper.
Finishing Touches
3
  • Drain the fat from the mince. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the tomato puree, Central American spice mix, chicken stock paste and water (see pantry). 
  • Fry until the sauce has thickened, 2-3 mins. Remove from the heat and stir in the ketchup (see pantry).
  • Add a splash of water if it's too thick. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
Dinner's Ready!

  • Share your rice between bowls.

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The spiced pork mince and burger sauce coleslaw combination wins plenty of praise for delivering genuine cheeseburger flavour. Some find the dish leaning more towards a chilli-style profile, and a small number feel the overall flavour needs more depth.
  • Ease of prep: This is a genuinely quick and straightforward weeknight meal, with many noting it comes together in well under 20 minutes with minimal washing up.
  • Suggestions: Add gherkins or pickles for a more authentic cheeseburger feel; some also found that adding fresh onion or peppers to the mince boosted the overall flavour. If the sauce feels too thick or the dish tastes dry, a splash of extra water and a little more burger sauce helps balance the rice-to-sauce ratio.
  • Next-day meals: Leftovers keep well and several people enjoyed this cold the following day, with one noting it made a good packed lunch.
  • Portions: The rice portion can feel generous relative to the mince, so consider reducing the rice slightly or adding a little extra mince if cooking for hungrier appetites.
  • Customisation: Swapping the rice for wedges or trying it with pasta are popular variations; adding rocket or a simple side salad also works well if you want to lighten the meal.
