Chimi burger

The chimi borrows its name from the Argentinian sauce, chimichurri, however the meaning behind its moniker is a long-standing mystery, as the two dishes draw no similarities and the buns are usually spread with salsa rosa.

Instructions

Combine beef, oregano, coriander, onion and garlic in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then add egg. Using damp hands, mix to combine. Shape into 4 patties and refrigerate for 2 hours. Combine cabbage in a bowl with vinegar and 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover and refrigerate.

To make salsa rosa, combine all ingredients in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat and cook buns on both sides until golden and toasted. Set aside. Heat oil in frying pan and cook patties for 4 minutes on each side for medium, or until cooked to your liking.
