Ingredients

• Ground beef (halal) - 300 grams
• Chili garlic sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic cloves (minced) - 2
• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Green onions (chopped) - 2 tablespoons
• Cilantro (chopped) - 2 tablespoons

• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Burger buns - 2
• Lettuce leaves - 2

2. Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
