Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 2 tbsp Thai red curry paste
- 2 tbsp Coconut milk
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 Yellow onion
- 4 Hamburger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato, sliced
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
- 1 tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 tsp Sugar
Instructions
In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, Thai red curry paste, coconut milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the burger patties tender.
Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape into burger patties about 1/2 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove the patties and let them rest for a few minutes.
Slice the yellow onion into rings. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the same skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add the onion rings and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly charred. Remove from the heat and set aside.
To prepare the curry dressing, mix the mayonnaise, lime juice, fresh cilantro, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly, either in a toaster, oven, or on the grill for additional texture.
Assemble the burgers: Spread a generous amount of curry dressing on the bottom half of each bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, the burger patty, and some grilled onions. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as sweet potato fries or a crisp salad.
