Korean Shrimp Burger

Let's make a crispy and juicy Korean Shrimp Burger today!
This burger was inspired by the Wasabi Shrimp Burger from a famous burger restaurant in Korea that I was craving. I decided to recreate it at home and it turned out to be super easy to make! The burger has a special wasabi mayo that pairs perfectly with the shrimp. Today, I'm sharing the secret recipe with you!
