MALAYSIAN INDIAN CURRY-SPICED BEEF BURGERS
This recipe was inspired by my recent trip to Malaysia in August 2009. I went to visit my father's parents in Penang, the city in which my father was born and raised. Although I'm of Chinese background, my father often integrates Malaysian flavors in his cooking. One of his most popular dishes is his yellow curry, which is a staple of Malaysian Indian food. His traditional curry is rather time-intensive and laborious. I decided to take a simpler approach, making the traditional Malaysian Indian flavors more accessible to my grad student schedule.)

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium and lightly grease the grates with canola oil.
- Drizzle the red pepper, jalapeno and sliced onions with olive oil, and season them with salt, pepper, to taste, and curry powder. Grill the vegetables over medium heat until they have grill marks and are softened, approximately 5 minutes. Allow them to cool, then peel off the skin of the red pepper. Finely chop the onions and pepper and set aside. Reserve the jalapeno for the aioli.
- In a small saute pan over medium heat, add the 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 cup curry powder, the grated garlic, grated ginger, turmeric, coriander, cumin, and garam masala, if using. Allow the spices to toast in the oil until fragrant and become slightly darker in color, approximately 2 to 3 minutes (If this mixture seems dry, feel free to add a little more oil to the pan.) Allow the spices to cool slightly.
- In a medium-sized bowl, use a fork or chopsticks to combine the beef, the spice mixture, the grilled red pepper, red onion, green onions, ketchup, brown sugar and soy sauce. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (Marinating overnight is even better to help the flavors marry.)
- Remove the burger mixture from the refrigerator, and divide it into 4 equal-sized quadrants. Brush the patties with olive oil, season both sides with salt and pepper, and put them the grill. Cook the patties to medium-rare or medium doneness, about 3 minutes on the first side, then 4 to 5 minutes on the second side. Make sure to rotate the patties once on each side to achieve nice crosshatch marks. Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate and tent them with aluminum foil. Allow them to rest for at least 10 minutes.
- Combine the mayonnaise, mint, green onion, grilled jalapeno, garlic, curry powder, cumin, lime zest and juice in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is well integrated, but there are still chunks of green onion and jalapeno remaining. Season the puree with salt and black pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, toss together the fried onions with the garam masala until they are evenly dusted with the spice. Set aside.
- While the burgers rest, halve the brioche rolls, and put them, cut side down, on the grill grates. Toast until they are a light golden brown, about 10 seconds. Set aside.
- To serve, generously spread 1 tablespoon of aioli onto each side of the rolls. Press 4 to 5 slices of cucumber into the mayonnaise on the bottom of the roll. Top the cucumbers with a handful of baby lettuce, then a burger patty, and finally, approximately 1/4 cup of the fried onion mixture. Cover with the top of the buns and serve immediately with a side salad and the Grilled Sweet Potato Fries.
- Add the egg yolk, salt, dry mustard, and sugar to a large bowl. Whisk by hand or with an electric mixer until combined. Pour in the lemon juice and vinegar and whisk once more.
- While whisking continuously, very slowly drizzle in the canola oil. Keep drizzling until the mixture has emulsified and the entire cup of oil has been incorporated into the egg mixture. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Tips:
- Prepare the ingredients in advance: Chop the vegetables, mix the spices, and make the chutney mayo before you start cooking the burgers.
- Use a good quality bun: The bun is an important part of the burger, so make sure to use a soft and fluffy bun that can hold up to the juicy patty.
- Cook the patties over medium heat: This will help to prevent the patties from burning on the outside and staying raw on the inside.
- Add cheese to the patties towards the end of cooking: This will help the cheese to melt and become gooey.
- Serve the burgers immediately: The best way to enjoy Indian curry burgers is to serve them hot off the grill with your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Indian curry burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual party. With their flavorful patties, creamy chutney mayo, and fresh toppings, these burgers are sure to be a hit with everyone.
