How to make this Simple Burger Steak recipe ?

With a multitude of Burger Steak Recipe videos and articles, what makes this recipe different? The umami, creamy, and very sauce-y flavor that many Filipinos are very fond of. In this recipe, it’s not only straightforward. All of the ingredients are readily available and quick to make.

Let’s make the burger. In a bowl, flavor the ground beef with onions, salt, pepper, soy sauce and liquid seasoning for the umami flavor, breadcrumbs to help with the structure of the burger, and an egg to bind everything together. Scoop some of  the meat onto your hand, and form into a ball. Roll then flatten to keep the patty even. Place this onto some parchment paper to make these easier to remove later on. Cover then freeze for 30 minutes more or less just to make sure the form is stable. Then in a pan at medium heat, add a bit of oil then cook and flip the patties until both sides have browned and slightly charred. Once cooked, set these aside. To prepare for the sauce.

A deliciously creamy and savory burger steak recipe sauce made of melted butter that’s used instead of oil for the richer flavor and smoother texture, pour in evaporated milk for a slightly thick and milky flavor, the savory additions of soy sauce, beef broth, with some salt and pepper to taste. Mix these together, give it a taste and add more of the salt or pepper as needed. Bring to a simmer before straining. This helps make sure that your sauce base is smooth and silky. Then in the same pan saute some sliced mushrooms. You can use fresh mushrooms, but what makes this affordable and great is that you can also use cheaper and easier to find canned button mushrooms that have already been sliced. Remember to strain the mushrooms or give it a little rinse before sauteing in a pan. Once warmed, pour back the sauce, bring into a simmer before adding the cornstarch slurry to help thicken the sauce. Thickening this up also helps this cling better onto the burgers. 

Place back the patties and douse these with the sauce. Let everything simmer together so that the flavors would blend well together. This also gives time for the burgers to absorb a bit of the sauce. Garnish with parsley or serve this with a side of rice then garnish with fried garlic and parsley. This dish is one of the most satisfyingly Filipino-American fusion dishes you can find. The meaty burgers are an absolute delight, easy to make, and can be eaten anytime of the day. Paired with rice, pasta, or bread.
