Tips:
- For a more authentic Thai flavor, use authentic Thai curry paste. If not available, a combination of yellow curry powder and red curry powder can be substituted.
- To make the burgers more moist, add some panko breadcrumbs or grated vegetables like carrots or zucchini to the ground turkey.
- Don't overcook the burgers. They should be cooked through but still juicy. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
- Serve the burgers on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and avocado. A spicy mayo or Thai sweet chili sauce is also a great addition.
