Ingredients

Ground beef

1 pound

Soy sauce

2 tablespoons

Sesame oil

1 tablespoon

Garlic cloves

2, minced

Fresh ginger

1 tablespoon, minced

Gochujang (Korean chili paste)

1 tablespoon

Hamburger buns

4

Lettuce leaves

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, and gochujang. Ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
2. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and form each into a patty.
3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once heated, add the patties.
4. Cook the patties for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Ensure the beef is thoroughly cooked to avoid foodborne illness.
5. While the patties are cooking, toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.
6. Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun. Add a cooked patty, a slice of tomato, and a slice of onion.
7. Cover with the top half of the bun and serve while hot. Enjoy this delightful fusion of Korean and American flavors.
