The Review - FOOD AND DRINK - Cooking with CLARE
Published: 20th August 2009

Hearty hamburger
To keep on the budget theme here is a cheap main course but absolutely delicious and will warm anyone’s heart. Served with oven chips and a good salad after a starter glass or two of champagne and then a good bottle of red wine, I would certainly be a happy punter. If cooking for two people then just freeze the others before cooking.

Ingredients
Serves 4

450g lean minced beef
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 egg
Handful fresh breadcrumbs
Splash Worcestershire sauce
Half teasp dried thyme
1 teasp tomato puree
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A little flour.

Method
Fry the onion and garlic in a little oil for about three minutes or until soft. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked onion mix together with all the other ingredients except the rest of the olive oil. The best mixing tool is your hands. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and then cook the burgers on a high heat to brown and seal then lower the heat and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
