Step 1
Mince the 2 garlic cloves and mix with the 0.5 lb ground beef, 2 tbsp sweet soy sauce, and 0.5 tsp salt in a bowl until well combined.
Step 2
Cook the seasoned beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Soften the 4 banana leaves by passing them over a flame or dipping in hot water for a few seconds until pliable.
Step 4
Place a portion of the 2 cups cooked rice on each leaf, flatten, add a spoonful of the cooked beef in the center, then fold the leaf over to form a packet.
Step 5
Grill the packets over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, until the leaf is charred and the rice is heated through. Serve hot.
