   In a large bowl , combine ground beef , scallions, and half the Tex-Mex paste . Form mixture into two patties (four patties for 4), each slightly wider than a burger bun. Heat a drizzle of cooking oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add patties; cook until browned on one side, ⏱️ 4 minutes . Flip, then reduce heat to medium low and cover.
