    Nutmeg in hamburger? Really? I like that these spices are different than what you normally see for a burger. I would think garlic and onion, but not the coriander and the nutmeg. That one really took me by surprise, but it's a good surprise. The red onion is my favorite. I love red onions on a burger.

    If you like hamburgers, and like added zesty flavor, this recipe is for you. The onions, garlic, black pepper, nutmeg, and coriander cooked in olive oil, provide the spice in the ground beef. When making this, I would use lean ground beef, and serve the hamburgers with lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and mustard. A good side dish would be potato salad.
