Kim Chi Burger

We got to spend time in Korea when I was a kid. It was a lovely way to learn about other cultures and flavors at an early age. Korean flavors have been my favorite ever since. I love mixing Korean flavors into different places - a burger seemed like the perfect spot to start! I can’t wait to hear what you think!

Kim Chi Burger

1 ½ lb ground beef

STEP 1

In a Ziploc bag, combine together beef, gochuchang, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce.  Mash around and let rest.

Cook the burgers 5-7 minutes until done through.  Butter the buns and toast them alongside the burgers.
