This is based on a recipe from my late cousin Vee, via her daughter Jane.
| Ingredients
1 cup - Ripe mango, diced
1/2 cup - Onion, diced/minced
1 Tbs - Teriyaki sauce
1/2 tsp - Black pepper
1.5 lbs - Ground beef, prefer 85/15 ground round
Directions
- Dice ripe mango into peanut-sized pieces. If your mango is ripe, this gets a little juicy/messy.
- Dice/mince sweet Vidalia onion into pieces smaller than the diced mango. I prefer minced, otherwise the onion is still too crunchy for my liking. Also can pre-nuke larger onion pieces.
- Add teriyaki sauce to onions, mix to coat.
- Add teriyaki+onions, mango, and pepper to ground beef. Avoid over-mixing beef, makes results chewier. When possible, let rest/marinate in the fridge for juices to be absorbed. (over-ripe mango might need some bread crumbs to be firm enough for patties, or sometimes I drain off mango juice if there's an excess).
- Form hamburger patties, this recipe makes 7-8 quarter-pounders pre-cooked weight. Place patties on wax paper for easy transfer to grill, or back to fridge if desired. Ripe mango can make this step a bit messy too lol.
- Grilling is preferred, else pan-fry, bake, or even steam.
