Beef mince can be substituted with chicken mince and sriracha hot sauce can be substituted with your favorite hot sauce. But I personally recommend sticking to the original recipe as Beef is an excellent source of various vitamins and minerals. These include vitamin B12, zinc, selenium, iron, niacin, and vitamin B6

METHOD: Step 1: - Chop the garlic cloves, green chillies, ginger, bread slice, kariyapak or curry leaves and kothmir leaves into tiny pieces - Mix the above mixture with the washed mince, nutmeg powder, lime/lemon juice, salt, cayenne pepper and the crushed black pepper thoroughly - Take out a small piece to fry for tasting for lack of salt of spices - Adjust the salt and spices accordingly and let the meat marinate for minimum 30 minutes Step 2: - Mix all the ingredients mentioned above and set aside (Mayonaise, Cheese sauce, horseradish paste, black pepper, cayenne pepper with optional mustard and sriracha hot sauce) - Toast the buns on the top, middle and bottom and let it cool down. Apply the butter on 1 side and the sauce on the other side Step 3: - Chop the onion in big thick circles - Mix the corn flour, tempura, salt, sriracha hot sauce, cayenne pepper, black pepper and the cold soda/cold beer Tip: Tempura batter needs cold liquid as it helps absorb less oil and make it more crispy - Add the onion rings to the batter and give it another mix - Heat oil in a pan for deep frying. The level of the oil should be atleast 1 inch thick - Fry the onion rings till they are golden brown and then take them out and set them on paper towels to absorb the excess oil Step 4: - Take the meat (the size of your palm) in your hand. Mash it together and roll it into a big ball. Now flatten it to the size of your palm. Make sure the mixture is tight and not falling apart. That is 1 patty. Do the same for the rest of the meat. - Heat a pan with oil on high heat. Once the pan is smoking hot put the patties on the pan - Fry each side on high heat for 30 seconds, then reduce the temperature to medium and fry on each side for 1 minute. The patty should be firm and no blood should come out when pressed slightly - Add the butter on the top of the patty. Spread it out all over the patty then turn it. Now add the cheese slices on top and cover with a lid for 30 seconds so that the cheese melts around the burger - Overall each side would have cooked for 3-5 minutes - Let the patty rest without heat Step 5: - Put the patty on top of the bottom half of the bun. Then top with tomatoes or lettuce (optional) and a few onion rings. Put the top of the bun and place 1the rest of the onion rings on the side of the burger and serve hot
bon appetit
