How To Make eggplant burger with mint salsa and ginger mayo

  • Step 1
    Combine mayonnaise with sour cream and ginger. Fold in blue cheese and chill until needed.
  • Step 2
    Combine ground beef, eggplant, garlic, cinnamon, cumin, allspice and salt until thoroughly incorporated, but not overly compacted. Form meat into six patties sized to fit buns.
  • Step 3
    Combine in a small bowl the chopped tomatoes with onion, mint and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Step 4

  • Step 5
    Spread mayonnaise over the cut sides of warmed buns. On each bun bottom, place a patty and top with salsa. Add the top bun and serve.
