Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground sirloin
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons wasabi paste
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 4 burger buns, toasted
- 4 lettuce leaves
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and sliced fresh ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Pour the hot vinegar mixture over the thinly sliced red onion in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes until the onions are lightly pickled. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground sirloin, soy sauce, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape into burger patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each to prevent puffing while cooking.
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly brush with sesame oil to prevent sticking. Cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
While the burgers cook, prepare the wasabi mayo by mixing the mayonnaise and wasabi paste in a small bowl. Adjust the wasabi to taste.
Toast the burger buns until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers: Spread wasabi mayo generously on both halves of each bun. Add a lettuce leaf to the bottom half, followed by a cooked burger patty. Top with a portion of ginger pickled onions and the top bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Sirloin Burgers with Wasabi Mayo and Ginger Pickled Onions!
