Ingredients

• Kobe beef ground meat - 300 grams
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Ginger powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Avocado oil - 1 tablespoon
• Romaine lettuce leaves - 4 large

Steps

1. In a bowl, mix the ground Kobe beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder until just combined. Form into two equal-sized patties.
2. Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach desired doneness.
3. In the same skillet, add sliced shiitake mushrooms and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until browned and tender. Add green onions and stir for an additional minute.
4. In a small bowl, mix sesame oil and coconut aminos to create a sauce.
5. To assemble, lay the patties on large romaine lettuce leaves, top with sautéed mushrooms and green onions, and drizzle with the sesame sauce.
