Ingredients
  

For the Patty:

  • 1 500g ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio) This ratio ensures that the beef patty stays juicy while cooking, with enough fat for flavor but not too much grease.
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped Onions provide a sweet, savory undertone and a bit of moisture to the beef patty.
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced Garlic adds a punch of savory flavor that pairs well with the fusion spices.
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce Soy sauce adds umami and a subtle saltiness, balancing out the rich beef flavor.
  • 1 tbsp cumin Cumin brings warmth and an earthy undertone to the patty.
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika Smoked paprika adds depth and a slight smokiness, giving the patty a grilled flavor even if cooked on the stovetop.
  • 1 egg Egg acts as a binder to hold the patty together while cooking.
  • 1 Salt and pepper to taste Seasoning the patty is crucial to enhancing the flavor of all the ingredients.

For the Toppings:

  • 4 slices cheddar cheese Cheddar cheese melts perfectly over the patty, offering a creamy contrast to the bold flavors.
  • 1 Kimchi (optional, for a Korean twist) Kimchi adds a fermented tang and a bit of spice, bringing a Korean flavor element to the burger.
  • 1 Avocado slices Creamy avocado adds a fresh, smooth texture that balances out the spicier elements.
  • 1 Fresh cilantro leaves Cilantro adds a bright, herbal note that complements the rich patty.
  • 1 Sriracha mayo (mix sriracha sauce and vegan mayo) The Sriracha mayo brings heat and creaminess, elevating the fusion flavors to the next level.
  • 1 Pickled jalapeños For a spicy kick and tangy crunch, pickled jalapeños add another layer of flavor to the burger.

For the Buns:

  • 4 brioche buns (toasted) Brioche buns are soft, buttery, and slightly sweet, providing the perfect base for this complex burger.

Instructions
 

Prepare the Patty Mix:

  • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, soy sauce, cumin, smoked paprika, egg, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to gently mix the ingredients, being careful not to overwork the meat to maintain tenderness. The soy sauce adds an extra umami boost, while the cumin and smoked paprika contribute depth and warmth to the patty.

Shape the Patties:

  • Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each one into a patty about ¾ inch thick. To help the patty cook evenly, make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb. This keeps the patty from puffing up in the middle while cooking.

Cook the Patties:

  • Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the grill or skillet briefly to melt the cheese.

Toast the Buns:

  • While the patties are cooking, toast the brioche buns until they are golden brown and slightly crisp. Toasting the buns ensures they hold up to the juicy patty and toppings without becoming soggy.

Assemble the Burger:

  • Spread a layer of Sriracha mayo on the bottom bun. Place the cheesy beef patty on top, followed by slices of avocado, fresh cilantro, pickled jalapeños, and a spoonful of kimchi (if using). Top with the toasted bun, and your International Fusion Burger is ready to be devoured!
