Most of the time I love meat on the stick, but sometimes you just have to change up the recipe a little and make it practical. I had leftover burger buns and decided to make this beef satay into a burger instead of pretty on a stick like the original post said to do -
There’s nothing wrong with that and it was amazing. It’s spicy as advertised, but it is packed full of flavor! I would love to make this again to change up the usual burgers, but think I’ll leave the almonds out, just for texture preference.
