Ingredients

Quick Satay Sauce

  • ½ handful coriander leaves
  • 1 chili
  • ½ thumb sized ginger
  • 1 garlic clove
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • 1 lime zest
  • 1 lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 heaped tbsp peanut butter (70 gr)

Beef Satay Patty

  • 1 small shallot
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • ½ thumb sized ginger
  • ½ thumb sized galangal
  • 1 lemongrass
  • 10.5 oz minced beef (300 gr)
  • ¾ teaspoon salt , or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon cumin powder
  • ½ tablespoon coriander powder
  • 1 teaspoon fennel powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey (18 gr)
  • 2 tablespoon breadcrumbs (15 gr)

Others

  • 2 burger buns
  • some slices of red onion
  • some cucumber slices
  • some chili slices
  • some coriander leaves

Instructions

Quick Satay Sauce

  • Blend all of the satay sauce ingredients into a fine mixture. Set aside.

Beef Satay Patty

  • Blend lemongrass, shallot, ginger, galangal into a fine mixture. Into a bowl, add it together with the rest of the patty ingredients and mix until everything is well combined.
  • Cover the bowl with a cling film and leave it to chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, divide the meat into 2 portions. Take one portion and form it into a patty that's slightly bigger than your burger bun. Make a slight indentation in the middle so that the patty cooks more evenly. Do the same with the other portion.
  • Heat some oil in a pan on low medium heat. Place the patty inside. Cook for a few minutes, flip and then continue cooking until it's fully cooked or until the internal temperature is 160ºF (71ºC). Remove from the pan and cover with aluminium foil to keep it warm and juicy. If your pan is big enough, you can cook both patties at the same time.

Assembling

  • Toast your burger buns with a bit of butter. Spread some satay sauce on the bun. Place the beef patty on top followed by more satay sauce, slices of red onion, cucumber, chili and some coriander leaves. Place the top bun and enjoy!
