Lemongrass Beef And Shrimp Burger

Ingredients

500 grams Ground Beef
150 grams, Peeled Shrimps, chopped
1 Tbsp Peanut or Vegetable Oil
1 Large Yellow Onion, chopped
1 ½ tsp Minced Garlic
¾ tsp Ground Lemongrass
½ tsp Ground Galangal
1 tsp Chili Flakes
2 tsp Sugar
1 Tbsp Fish Sauce
1 Large Egg
1 tsp Sea Salt

4 Burger Buns
Lemongrass Aioli
Asian Style Coleslaw
Some Fresh Coriander
Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Method

Heat 1 Tbsp of the oil in a pan over moderate heat. Add the onion and stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.

Combine the ground beef, shrimps, cooked onion, garlic, egg, lemongrass, galangal, chili flakes, sugar, and fish sauce. Let the mixture marinate in the fridge for about 2 hours. When ready to serve, divide the meat into 4 equal patties. Shape the patties slightly bigger than the size of the burger buns.

Prepare the grill for direct cooking. Grill the patties for about 3 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Meanwhile, toast the buns lightly and set side. To serve, spread some lemongrass aioli, place the burger patty on the bun, top with Asian style coleslaw, freshly ground black pepper, and coriander. Serve immediately.
