Well it would appear that I am back on track finally this week. I had my homemade burgers on Tuesday night and they were yummy. I don’t normally like burgers because of the texture but these were great. I didn’t take a picture as they looked messy as hell but this is roughly what I did.
Ingredients:
- 1 pack (400g) extra lean mince
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 1 tsp mixed herbs
- Pepper
- 1 tbsp of liquid beef stock
- a dash or two of worcestershire sauce
- a good grinding of dried garlic and chilli
- 1 slice of 400g wholemeal bread – whizzed into breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
Method:
- Using a large knife chop up mince on a chopping board until all mushed (you don’t have to do this but I find if you do this the mince turns out really tender without having to be cooked for hours!)
- Place into a bowl with all the other ingredients and mix with you hands until it all comes together and is mixed well
- Shape into burger shapes, I made 6 pretty generous burgers from this, and if you wish place a laughing cow into the middle and shape the mince around it to seal it. (Some people like this, I didn’t really but you could try it. I had one with and one without)
- Fry in a non stick frying pan with fry light until cooked – I removed them from the pan and placed into the oven for an extra 5 mins while I was waiting on the chips just to make sure they were really cooked
Serve with a wholemeal roll, onions, cheese and tomato. I also used Britmum’s BBQ sauce which went really well, you can find the recipe here. Plus her picture looked much better than mine
