Notes
Tips for Storing
Store components separately. The rice, patties, and sauces all keep better when stored in their own containers in the fridge.
Beef patties keep for up to 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat to bring back a little of that crust.
Reheat rice with a splash of water in a microwave-safe bowl covered with a damp paper towel. This steams it back to fluffy rather than turning it into a dry, clumpy brick.
Gravy and teriyaki sauce both reheat well in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally. Thin with a little water or broth if either has thickened too much in the fridge.
Not recommended for freezing as a fully assembled bowl, but the cooked beef patties freeze well on their own for up to 3 months. Wrap individually and thaw overnight in the fridge.
