Cover a baking sheet or a large cutting board with parchment paper. Shape the mixture into burger patties. Complete shaping all patties before cooking.

Serve the assembled burgers immediately to enjoy their full flavor.
# Notes:

Mix the patty ingredients just until incorporated to prevent dense and dry patties.
02 -
If the mixture is too sticky, wet hands with water to make shaping easier.
03 -
The patty mixture can be chilled for 15-20 minutes to firm up before cooking.
04 -
Burgers can be cooked on the stovetop, grilled, or baked for varied textures.
05 -
Customize the toppings with avocado slices, pickles, or onions for extra flavor.
06 -
Reheat leftovers gently to retain their juiciness.
