Method
Prawn Burgers
Sauté the onion, green chilies and curry leaves in oil until aromatic, then let cool.
Mix the cooled aromatics with the minced prawns, turmeric, ground cinnamon, Kashmiri red chili powder, egg, cornstarch and salt; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
With lightly oiled hands, shape the mixture into thick patties and lightly coat each patty in flour.
Pan‑fry the patties until golden, flip, add the sliced smoked cheese and cook until the cheese melts and the patty is cooked through.
Toast the brioche buns, place a cooked patty on each bun bottom, then top with the bun lid and cut the burger in half.
Goan Prawn Curry Sauce: Sauté a medium onion and green chilies (to taste) in a little oil until aromatic.
Goan Prawn Curry Sauce: Add the jar of Goan curry sauce and stir.
Goan Prawn Curry Sauce: Add the prawn stock, stir, then pour in the coconut cream and the remaining sprig of curry leaves.
Goan Prawn Curry Sauce: Simmer gently until the sauce reaches the desired consistency, then strain for a smooth, silky finish.
Assembly
Serve each prawn burger half with a generous amount of the Goan prawn curry dipping sauce, drizzle Kashmiri red chili oil, and garnish with crispy shallots.
