Indian Curried Beef Burgers with Mango Cabbage Slaw

Indian Curried Beef Burgers with a Mango Cabbage Slaw – grilled beef burgers in curry seasoning with a decadent mango and cabbage slaw.

These Indian Curried Beef Burgers with Mango Slaw are such a delight! I don’t make burgers that often but when I do, I like to push the envelope a little. Since I’ve never made curried burgers before, I decided to let out the “Dora The Explorer” in me. So glad I did because these things are so luscious! Succulently spiced with curry seasonings and the anti-inflammatory turmeric these burgers are a huge hit!

The Mango Slaw recipe is actually taken from my Plantain Fishcakes recipe, except done a tad bit differently. Either way will work gloriously with these burgers though! I would suggest again to make sure you find a firm but ripe mango to work with. Oh and try not to eat half of the mango before the slaw is actually done!

For the burgers; I used my grill pan because I’m waiting on consistent sunlight in London to purchase an actual grill. If you have one, by all means double or triple this recipe and have yourself an early BBQ!

As I’m currently on my Whole 30, I am so determined to give myself the fancy meals without feeling like I’m missing something. What I mean is; just the idea of a diet, cleanse or detox suddenly means you’re missing out on something and you kinda have to work twice as hard to refute that. However, this meal right here makes healthy living worthwhile! Honestly, why would you want to eat any differently?

Seriously, this meal is so delicious – I ate all the burgers (except for the half I shared with my sister) and all the slaw myself. That does NOT make me selfish – just a tiny bit gluttonous lol!
