• 1 3/4 pounds lean ground beef

• 2 tablespoons lemon grass, minced
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
• 2 tablespoons minced shallots
• 2 red chili peppers, seeded and minced

Directions

Preheat grill for high heat.

In a large bowl, mix together ground round, bread crumbs, lemon grass, shallot, chili peppers, and peanuts. Season with salt and pepper. Form into patties. If you are making these ahead of time, do not add peanuts until you are ready to grill.
