100 grams White rice
2 mediums Onions; grated
2 slices Wholewheat bread; ground

Directions

1. Cook the lentils and rice in water and bouillon powder for 20-25 minutes, until they are both light and fluffy.

2. When still hot beat well to breakdown the rice and release the gluten.

3. Add the grated onion and allow to cool.

4. Stir in the coriander, lime juice and ground breadcrumbs.

5. Season to taste and shape into batons.

6. Place all the basting ingredients in a screw top jar.

7. Brush over the batons while cooking.

8. Serve in rolls with coriander relish and Capsicum and Peanut Salsa.

Tips: Brown rice will not give the binding quality of white rice. Grating the onions saves having to pre-cook them and gives the batons an even consistency.
