From the book, From Chilis to Chutneys by Neelam Batra. Serve with the traditional American hamburger fixings or try them with chutney, grilled sliced onion, mushrooms and tomatoes.
Ingredients:
3 lbs extra lean ground beef
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1/4 cup minced scallion top
1/2 cup firmly packed ginely chopped cilantro leaf, soft stems included
Directions:
1. In large bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix thoroughly.
2. Shape into 6-10 patties, each about 4 in diameter.
3. The patties will shrink as they cook.
4. Put the patties on a grill over hot coals and cook to the desired level of doneness, 10-15 minutes.
5. Turn once or twice and press the patties with a spatula to ensure that the insides get properly cooked.
6. The patties can be pan-fired by placing them in a nonstick or cast-iron skillet or on a stove top griddle, and cooking them over moderately high heat until they become golden to golden brown on both sides and are cooked through as you like them.
