Ingredients

  • Wagyu ground beef - 300 grams
  • Shirataki noodles - 100 grams, drained and rinsed
  • Green onion - 2 stalks, finely chopped
  • Soy sauce (low sodium) - 1 tablespoon
  • Sesame oil - 1 teaspoon
  • Garlic - 1 clove, minced
  • Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Butter lettuce leaves - 4 large leaves
  • Avocado - 1, sliced
  • Sriracha sauce - to taste
  • Pickled ginger - for garnish

Steps

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the Wagyu ground beef, chopped green onion, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined but do not overwork the meat.
  2. Divide the meat mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 2 cm thick.
  3. Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat and add a little oil if necessary. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.
  4. While the patties are cooking, prepare the shirataki noodles according to package instructions and set aside.
  5. Once the patties are cooked, assemble the burgers by placing each patty in a butter lettuce leaf. Top with sliced avocado, shirataki noodles, and a drizzle of sriracha sauce.
  6. Garnish with pickled ginger and serve immediately.
