Hmong Ginger Beef Patties
While these might look like basic little beef patties, they are nothing short on flavor. The beef mixture is heavily seasoned with fresh garlic, ginger, lemongrass, shallots, lime leaves, cilantro, green onions, with a little heat from Thai chilies. The patties can be broiled, grilled, and even pan fried in about 15 minutes. Serve them with steamed rice and some pickled greens on the side.
