   Cooking Tips

  • Placing a lid over the cooking patties seals in the moisture and helps ensure juicy patties. If you don’t have a wok with a lid, use a plate or another pan.
  • This is a great recipe for using up leftover rice. Make sure the rice is heated thoroughly before serving.

Nutrition Advice

  • Choose extra-lean minced pork for a heart-healthy option with less saturated fat.
  • Eggs are an excellent source of high quality protein. They also provide many vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B12, riboflavin, vitamin D, folate and iron.
  • Brown rice is an excellent alternative to white rice because it has more protein, fibre, and other nutrients.
