If you’re not worried about them looking the same, but just want some the same size, you have more options and a potentially easier task. It would be difficult to exactly match the veneer on the mdf anyway. Given the choice, I’d avoid doing a mitre joint. Assuming a dovetail is too much of a stretch, the front and back could be butted onto the sides and secured with dowels and a pair of cam and dowel concealed fixings, and glue. Ikea style. You’d need a jig for the dowels and concealed fixings. Still quite a bit of work involved.

Yes, the drawers run on a couple of pieces of what look like dowel. They’re probably not the best designed or constructed set of drawers, but they fit the shelving when we bought it. And it would be handy now to have more, they just not available to buy. They’re also tiny, I’m not sure runners would be useful as they’re so small.
