Homemade Burgers

Prep time: 25 min
Cook time: 15 min
Serves: 4


Ingredients
· 10 g butter
· 75 g onions, finely chopped
· 450 g minced beef, or minced lamb
· 1/2 tsp thyme, chopped
· 1/2 tsp parsley, chopped
· 1 eggs, beaten
· pinch fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
· 4 tbsp olive oil, for frying
To serve
· 1 ciabatta
· 4 leaves lettuce



· Tomato slices
· Cucumber pickle

Method
1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan, and add the onion. Fry over a gentle heat until the onion is soft and very pale golden. Leave to cool. 2. Mix the mince with the herbs and egg, and then season with salt and pepper. Add the onions, and mix. 3. Fry a tiny bit of the mixture in the frying pan to check for seasoning, and then shape into hamburgers. Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the burgers for several minutes on each side. 4. Split the ciabatta horizontally, and toast under the grill. Fill the toasted ciabatta with lettuce, the tomato and some cucumber pickle. Pop the hot cooked burger inside, and serve immediately.
