Preparation

Step 1
Melt the butter in a pan over medium-low heat and saute the onion and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Drain on a paper towel. Mix together the cinnamon, cumin and coriander.
Step 2
Combine the sirloin with the onion mixture and the spice mixture. Form into 20 balls, and flatten into ½-inch-thick patties.
Step 3
Put a teaspoon of yogurt in the center of 10 patties. Cover each of these with one of the plain patties and pinch around the edges to seal.
Step 4
In a cast-iron skillet, cook over medium heat 4 to 6 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
