Starchild: Malaysian children love juicy, tasty burgers


Bethany Wang Qi Syuen, 7

Everyone knows what a burger is, right? A burger comprises a patty of ground meat, placed inside a slice of bun. It usually comes with cheese, tomatoes and ketchup.

Burgers were first introduced in the late 19th century. Did you know that besides fast-food burgers, there are many fusion burgers worldwide? Chef Keizo Shimamoto invented the ramen burger where a hamburger patty is sandwiched between two discs of compressed ramen noodles instead of two bun slices. In Pakistan, there’s the shami burger, where the filling is a mixture of lentil and minced lamb.
