Desi Indian-Style Burger Recipe

Western influence has made its way to india, and hamburgers are no exception. The meat patty has become a popular food in india, combining the american-style burger with traditional indian spices. By mixing ground beef or lamb with the classic indian seasonings of ginger and garlic pastes, coriander, cumin, and garam masala, you take the typical hamburger to a whole new level. By swapping the ketchup and mustard for a mint-coriander chutney, you create a summertime favorite with a deliciously unique flavor profile. This recipe calls for pan-frying the beef patties, but you can certainly grill them if you prefer. Serve these burger patties with naan bread and cooling raita sauce to keep with more traditional indian cuisine.
