Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground chicken
• 2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
• 2 tablespoons Coconut milk
• 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
• 1 teaspoon Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Lemongrass (finely minced)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 leaves Kaffir lime leaves (finely chopped)
• 60 grams Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 4 Burger buns
• 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 10 grams Cilantro leaves
• 100 grams Shredded carrots
• 100 grams Shredded cabbage
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground chicken, red curry paste, coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, minced lemongrass, minced garlic, chopped kaffir lime leaves, and breadcrumbs. Mix well until evenly combined.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 1.5 cm thick.

Step 3

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through with an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F).

Step 4

While the patties cook, prepare the herb slaw by combining shredded carrots, shredded cabbage, cilantro leaves, lime juice, and chili flakes (if using) in a bowl. Toss to mix well.

Step 5

Toast the burger buns lightly in a dry skillet or under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, until golden.

Step 6

Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the inner sides of each bun. Place a cooked patty on the bottom half of the bun, followed by a generous scoop of herb slaw. Finish with the top bun.

Step 7

Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra citrusy kick.
