Annabel's tasty beef burgers recipe
Ingredients
450g (1lb) lean minced beef or lamb
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
100g chopped red pepper
1tbsp vegetable oil
1tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
1 beef stock cube, finely crumbled
1 apple, peeled and grated
½ lightly beaten egg
60g fresh breadcrumbs
½tbsp Worcestershire sauce
salt
freshly ground black pepper
a little flour
vegetable oil for frying, or for brushing a griddle pan
Fry the onion and red pepper in the vegetable oil for about 5 minutes or until softened. In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed onion together with all the other ingredients. With floured hands, form into 10 burgers. Fry the burgers in a little hot oil in a large shallow frying pan on a high heat to brown and seal, then lower the heat and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn them over and continue to cook for about 4 minutes. Alternatively, BBQ the burgers. When hot place 4 burgers on the BBQ and cook for about 4 minutes each side or until browned and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining burgers.
