Ingredients
Galbi smash double cheeseburger
- 1 kg (2.25 lb) beef mince (ground beef)
- 12 slices cheese
- 1 bottle galbi sauce (see Note)
- 6 potato rolls (or other burger rolls)
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- salt and pepper
- 1 medium white onion, sliced into thin rings
- Pickles, to garnish
Kimchi special sauce
- ½ cup kimchi, diced
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup yellow mustard
- ¼ cup ketchup (tomato sauce)
Instructions
- For the burgers, light grill and bring to medium heat. Add grill pan and preheat.
- Form beef into 12 equal balls. Marinate each ball in galbi sauce for 5 minutes, then season each with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, for the kimchi special sauce, add all ingredients to a bowl and mix together.
- Place each marinated ball of beef on the heated grill pan. Using the back of a spatula, smash the balls into patties and let sear for 2-3 minutes. Flip the patties, then add a slice of cheese on each. Cover the patties to fully melt the cheese. When the cheese is fully melted, another 2-3 minutes, remove patties from the grill and let rest.
- While the patties are resting, wipe the grill pan clean, then add vegetable oil. Toast buns on grill pan until golden brown.
- Serve two patties on a toasted roll, topped with kimchi special sauce, onions and pickles.
Note
• Galbi is a classic Korean barbecue rib dish. The sauce is available to buy (sometimes labelled kalbi), or you can make your own.
