Burgers
May 21, 2004
Filed under Asia & beyond, Mighty meaty
Ingredients :
500 g. of lean ground beef (preferably sirloin)
1 tbsp. of finely chopped garlic
1 onion, finely chopped
11/2 tsp. of salt
1/2 tsp. of ground black pepper
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp. of fine bread crumbs
Cooking procedure :
Mix all the ingredients together. Using your hands, form into patties about 3/4 of an inch thick. The size (diameter) depends on the size of your burger buns). Don’t make your burgers too thick to avoid having burgers that are nicely browned on the outside but still uncooked at the center.
Broil, grill or skillet-fry. If grilling or frying, turn once during cooking to brown both sides. Brush with a little steak sauce just before the burgers finish cooking. Whichever way you decide to cook your burgers, cook them over very high heat to brown the outside while the inside stays moist and juicy. If grilling, place the grill 6 to 8 inches from the live coals. If broiling, the rack should be just as far from the heat. If frying, set the heat to high. Transfer to a plate as soon as they are cooked and serve immediately.
Serving suggestions:
Prepare a variety of condiments–lettuce, onions, tomatoes, cheese, pickles– and dressings/sauces–mayonnaise, catsup, chili sauce–and serve them together with the burgers. I actually encourage my kids to prepare their own sandwiches so they can decide just how much lettuce or tomatoes or onions they want.
