PREPARATION
Peel and finely chop the onion

Method
|
Mix all the main ingredients in a bowl. By far the best way to do
this is with your hands. Divide the mixture into four and form each into a burger shape. Pat them well to prevent them falling apart when cooked. Ideally, put them in the fridge for an hour before cooking but this is not essential. |
|
Grill for around 5 to 8 minutes on each side depending on how well done you like your beef.
Turn the grill up to high two minutes before the beef burgers are cooked, add a slice of cheese topped with a very light dusting of cayenne pepper onto the burgers. Put them back under the grill for the remaining two minutes.
|
|
Mix the tomato ketchup and mustard well, and top
each burger with a teaspoon of the mixture. Finally, top the burger with a slice of lettuce, and place it in the cut roll. Eat immediately. Salad or a serving of baked beans are great accompaniments. |
