Flavour Packed Beef Burgers

,

Ingredients (For One)

  • Shallot, Finely Chopped
  • Medium Garlic Clove, Finely Chopped
  • Handful Fresh Coriander, Chopped
  • Large Pinch Of Lazy Ginger
  • Red Chilli, Deseeded, Finely Chopped
  • Tbsp Garam Masala
  • 125g Beef Mince (See Below For Alternatives)
  • Pak Choi
  • Burger Bun/Bread

Method

  1. Place the shallot, garlic, coriander, ginger, chilli, garam masala and beef mince into a bowl and combine (probably using your hands)
  2. Split the mixture into two patties and flatten them down to be more traditional burger shapes
  3. Pan fry on a medium heat and when you turn them, probably after about five minutes, place a lid over until they finish cooking
  4. Serve up in a bun
  5. Place the pak choi in the pan used for the burgers to pick up some of that leftover flavour and serve on the side of the burger

Eating And Storage Tips

I used beef mince for this but the flavours would absolutely work with pretty much any other mince. Pork, chicken/turkey or lamb would all work particularly well. Depending on the style you’re using you could possibly even use a vegetarian/vegan mince alternative too.

You can absolutely substitute lazy ginger/garlic/chilli for fresh and vice versa. Just remember that you might need to tweak the quantities for them all based on how much of a punch they provide. I would say that the ginger is the only one I would really say you can get away with not being really fresh but even then it is absolutely better when it is also freshly grated.

As always you could make up more of this mixture and split it, with some greaseproof paper in between, to put it into the freezer to cook at a later time. You could always make this into meatballs as well and again freeze those uncooked.

If you want to double up this recipe you could absolutely cook them up and let them cool for the fridge. They would be tasty enough cold but you could also either reheat them in a pan or put them into the microwave for about two minutes on each side. I think if you want to have more for the next day I would probably do the additional amount as meatballs as they may hold up better being reheated.

I decided to give my burgers a bit more oomph to them. – Place a finely shopped shallot, a finely chopped medium garlic clove, chopped fresh coriander, lazy ginger or some freshly grated ginger, a deseeded red chilli finely chopped, a tbsp garam masala and beef mince into a bowl and combine – Make the mixture into a couple of patties – Pan fry on a medium heat and when you turn them place a lid over until they finish cooking – Serve up. I placed some pak choi in my burger pan to pick up some of that leftover flavour and served on the side #food #cooking #cookingvideo #cookwithme #cookingwithme #simplerecipe #quickrecipe #quickfood #comfortfood #cookingathome #fypfood #foodiesoftiktok #homecook #homecooking #simplefood #foodiesofinstagram #mealswithme #recipesoftiktok #recipe #easyrecipe #quickrecipes #burger #burgertok #burgerlover #burgerrecipe #foodtok #dinner #dinnerideas
