Steps

1. In a bowl, mix the ground beef with Massaman curry paste, coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper until well combined.
2. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into patties.
3. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
4. While the patties cook, prepare the peanut sauce by mixing peanut butter, lime juice, and a little water to achieve a pourable consistency.
