Sumac-walnut smash burgers
Arabic 30 Mins Prep · 15 Mins Cook
- Prepare a grill for high heat.
- Place a cast-iron griddle pan, flat side up, on the grate. Heat until very hot, at least 20 minutes.
- To make the sumac aioli, combine the mayonnaise, garlic clove, sumac, juice of half a lemon and salt and set aside.
- To make the beef patties, combine the finely sliced leek, chopped walnuts, handful of chopped coriander and mince in a large bowl. Add sea salt and black pepper to taste.
- Divide into 85g balls.
- Place the balls onto baking paper and, using a meat mallet or pan, press them down to create thin patties.
- Drizzle some sunflower oil over the patties and season with some salt and pepper.
- Place the patties in the griddle pan and cook, without moving them, approx. 2-3 minutes a side, or until crispy on the edges.
- Place a piece of lettuce on the bottom half of a bun, top with a patty, sumac aioli, tomato and onion.
- Place the top half of the bun on and serve.
- Repeat with the remaining buns and patties.
