Indian-Spiced Pork Burgers
These flavor-packed burgers are a spin on a chouriço-like spiced pork sausage from Goa in southern India. They're especially delicious topped with yogurt, torn fresh mint leaves and thin slices of cucumber or tomato.

Extremely fast and easy
I wouldn't categorize this as mind-blowing or anything but it was quite tasty, especially considering how fast it came together. Really good with the suggested toppings!

Low Effort/High Impact
This is a perfect weeknight dinner, or even last-minute guest meal: super flavorful with minimum effort and out of the ordinary. Love this recipe.
We thought this was great—flavor packed and good texture. Based on the prior comment about mushiness, drained the yogurt beforehand to reduce moisture, and used 1/2 cup of panko. Topped with more drained yogurt, sliced cucumbers, and some purchased mint chutney. With the killer cucumber and chickpea chaat recipe (https://www.177milkstreet.com/recipes/chickpea-cucumber-salad-cookish) on the side, this was a standout recent dinner.

We made this last night for dinner and it was okay. It came together quick and had a lot of flavor, but the texture was too soft, almost mushy. We prefer more bite in a burger, so if we make it again would probably cut the panko & yogurt by half.
