Korean Kimchi Burgers
- 3 cups finely shredded napa cabbage
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion, divided
- 3 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
- 4 teaspoons minced garlic, divided
- 4 teaspoons minced fresh ginger, divided
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, divided
- 1 1/2 teaspoons asian chili-garlic sauce, divided (Sriracha)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 1/2 lbs ground chuck (80-20)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4 hamburger buns, split (I like sesame seeded)
- Heat grill to high (450u0b0 to 550u0b0).
- Mix cabbage, 1/4 cup green onions, the vinegar, 1 teaspoons each garlic and ginger, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoons chili sauce in a large bowl. Set relish aside, stirring occasionally. In another bowl, mix mayonnaise with remaining 1 teaspoons chili sauce.
- Combine beef, soy sauce, and remaining 1/4 cup green onions, 1 tablespoons each garlic and ginger, and 1 teaspoons sesame oil. Shape into 4 patties, each about 1/2 inches thick. Don't over mix or the burgers will be tough.
- Oil cooking grate, using tongs and a wad of oiled paper towels. Grill burgers, covered, turning once, 7 to 8 minutes total for medium. In the final minutes, toast buns.
- Spread bun bottoms with chili mayonnaise. Set burgers on buns. With a slotted spoon, put some cabbage relish on each. Serve with remaining relish.
