- For the hamburgers
- 16 ozs lean, ground Beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 egg (beaten)
- To serve
- 4 Bread roll
- Lettuce
- 1 large Tomato (sliced)
- 1 small Red onion (sliced)
Preparation steps
1.
For the hamburgers: heat the grill.
2.
Put all of the hamburger ingredients in a large bowl and mix together until the mixture starts holding together.
3.
Shape the burgers into 4 rounds with wetted hands. To get perfectly round shapes, press the mixture into a metal pastry cutter. Don't over-handle the burgers or they'll be tough and dry when cooked.
4.
Cook under the grill for about 5 minutes on each side, until they're cooked all the way through and there's no pinkness in the middle. To check this, press down the top of a burger with a spatula - if there are pink juices oozing out, then cook for a few more minutes.
5.
Cut the rolls in half and toast them until lightly golden.
6.
Arrange the lettuce on the base of each roll and place the hamburgers on top. Add a slice or two of tomato and red onion and place the top of the rolls on top. Serve with chips.
