Origin of Ramly Burger
This is an authentic Malaysian burger created by Ramly Moknin. The owner first opened a mobile kiosk on Lorong Haji Hussin in Kuala Lumpur in 1979. Soon, Ramly burgers became a hit. What makes Ramly burgers unique are the egg coated patties and burgers doused in sauce.

Ingredients
2 burger buns
4 Ramly chicken or beef patties
2 eggs
1 cucumber (sliced)
1 red onion (sliced)
1 tomato (sliced)
1 handful lettuce (wash and dried)
- To make the sauce:
Salt
Sugar
Ground black pepper
1tsp curry powder
Mayonnaise
Chilli sauce
Black pepper sauce
Water
Margarine
Directions
- First, prepare a bowl of onion sauce. Blend half the red onion with a little sugar and salt (about 1/8 tsp). Add one tsp of water to make sure the sauce is runny. This will add moisture to your patty.
- Next, on a hot pan, add a tbsp. of margarine. Then, place the patties on the pan. After 2 minutes on one side, remove from the heat and slice the patty in half (like an open book) and sprinkle on some black pepper and curry powder in the middle. Close the patty and cook the other side. Liberally sprinkle the onion sauce on the cooked side of the patty. Remove from heat after 2 minutes.
- Using the oil from the patty, crack one egg at a time onto the pan. Use a spatula and spread out the egg as much as you can. Be sure to act quick; eggs cook up in a few seconds! While the egg is cooking, sprinkle on some curry powder, black pepper and onion sauce. Then place two of the cooked patties in the middle of the cooking egg. Carefully pick up the sides of the spread out egg and wrap the patties.
- Next, spread some margarine on the inside of the halved burger buns. Cook for a minute.
- Now, time to assemble your burger. Top your burger bun with lettuce, chilli sauce and mayonnaise. Add the egg coated patty, tomatoes and onions. Serve.
