Thai Trio Burger
This Thai fusion burger was very well received by everyone in the family, the kids especially love the patty! The trio patty was prepared with ease in a food processor, pan fried, and coated in delicious pad Thai glaze. Then it was topped with lime sweet chilli mayo, an egg, and some crunchy fresh greens. I don't know about you but I'm salivating already!

Trio Patties

Put all the ingredients (except the sesame oil) for the patty in a food processor.

Blend until you get a paste.

If you have the time, let it marinade in the chiller for at least 30 mins.
- 9
While you get the sauce and topping prepared.
- 10
Heat pan on med heat for HCP and add sesame oil.
- 11
For regular frying pan, use med-high heat.
- 12
Wet hands so that the paste doesn't stick.

You can also drop patty on to the pan then shape using your spatula.

Cover and lock HCP for 1-2 mins then flip and do the same.

Pour Phad Thai sauce over the patties, cover and lock for 30 secs.

The sauce will thicken and caramelize. There is not much sauce, just enough to lightly coat the patties.

Fry your eggs, or do it simultaneously when you are cooking the patties, which was what I did.
