Simple and Healthy Asian Meat Burger


Never more apt. I LOVE FOOD. And I absolutely enjoy sinking my teeth into a juicy piece of patty. *droools* However, I have always been intimidated by making my own since it looks highly complex and elaborated. But ever since I figured that I should start adopting a habit of preparing my own meals more often so that I know what actually goes into my body as compared to consuming unhealthy take outs, i decided its time I give it a go. And boy am I glad I did. These meat patties were flavourful and juicy at the same time. No more dry, lacklustre burgers!
