Mexican Burgers With Avocado & Fried Eggs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano
    1/2 teaspoon chili powder
    1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
    1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    1/4 teaspoon black pepper
    1 teaspoon salt
    3 garlic cloves, peeled
    1 serrano pepper, stem removed
    1/2 onion
    1 lb lean ground beef
    2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
    1/2 cup mayonnaise (I use the light kind- works great)
    1 1/2 tablespoons hot sauce (I like Cholula in this)
    1 teaspoon lime juice
    2 tablespoons olive oil (if pan-frying)
    1 tablespoon butter
    4 eggs
    4 hamburger buns, sliced
    1 avocado, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced
    pico de gallo
Preparation
    Put the first 10 ingredients (cumin through onion) in a food processor and puree. Add half of the ground beef, and pulse to combine everything well.
    Put the rest of the ground beef and one tablespoon of cilantro in a large bowl. Add the beef-spice mixture and stir to combine well. Form this mixture into four burger patties.
    Mix the remaining cilantro with mayo, hot sauce, and lime juice. Add salt & pepper if desired- I usually don't. Set aside.
    Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties, flipping once, for about 12-15 minutes, or until desired doneness.
    Just before the meat is done, melt butter in a separate pan, then crack the eggs into it and cook until whites are firm and yolks are runny, about 3-5 minutes.
    Spread the mayo on both inner sides of the buns, then place down avocado slices, meat, fried egg, and pico de gallo. Serve!
