Keto Shoyu Burger

The Keto Shoyu Burger fuses traditional Japanese flavors with a low-carb twist, featuring a juicy beef patty glazed with savory shoyu sauce. Served on a crisp lettuce wrap and topped with fresh vegetables, it’s a deliciously satisfying meal for keto dieters.

Ingredients

• Ground beef - 300 grams (80/20 fat ratio)
• Shoyu (soy sauce) - 2 tablespoons
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Ginger powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Green onions - 2, finely chopped
• Butter - 1 tablespoon
• Lettuce leaves (for wrapping) - 4 large leaves
• Sliced cucumber - 1/2 cup
• Sliced radishes - 1/2 cup
• Mayonnaise - 2 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, shoyu, garlic powder, ginger powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped green onions. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
2. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties, about 1.5 cm thick.
3. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add butter. Once melted, place the patties in the skillet.
4. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes on the other side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
5. While the patties are cooking, prepare the lettuce wraps by rinsing and drying the leaves.
6. Once the patties are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a minute.
7. To assemble, place a patty on each lettuce leaf, top with sliced cucumber and radishes.
8. Drizzle with mayonnaise and sesame oil before wrapping the lettuce around the filling.
