Very simple recipe for quick and easy burgers, healthy as they contain kidney beans, onion, garlic and lean minced beef. Also dry fried and then finished of in oven to provide a burger with a little less fat content. Can also be cooked over hotcoals on braai.
You will need to mix together in a large bowl the following ingredients:-
500g lean minced beef
1 tin of kidney beans, drained and rinsed under running water
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
1 onion, finely diced
1 or 2 whole red chili peppers (only use one if you don't want a hot chili burger)
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon each of oregano and marjoram
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Mix together all the ingredients ensuring that everything is blended well together. Shape into small patties (or meatballs if preferred).
Heat griddle pan and when very hot cook 4 patties/burgers at a time, cook on each side for approx 5 minutes then place on baking tray. When all burgers have been browned on each side for 5 minutes cook for a further 20 - 30 minutes in a hot oven. For serving I would suggest savory rice or baked potato, a pasta sauce and side salad.
