You will need: Equipment:- A bowl
- A sharp knife
- A cutting board
- A skillet or heavy frying pan ( or a Grill )
Ingredients: - 1lb/500g ground sirloin
- 1 half onion grated or finely chopped
- 4 pinches ground coriander
- 4 pinches paprika powder
- A dash of fresh ground black pepper
- A pinch of salt
- A tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
- 1 egg lightly beaten
First, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and using your hands, shape into four balls. Turn the heat to medium under the skillet and add a tiny amount of oil. When the skillet is hot, add the burgers, pushing them flat with a spatula. Cook for about 3 minutes each side for medium rare, longer for well done and less for rare. Just before the burgers are ready, toast the inside of the buns under a broiler or over a grill or in a toaster. If using a grill or broiler, spread a little butter on the buns first. My personal preference for serving them is a little Mayo on the bottom of the bun, then the burger with a thin slice of raw onion, a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato. Topped off with a dap of ketchup and a good helping of English mustard on the top half of the bread. But, the great thing about making home made hamburgers is, you can add what you want. I like to serve them with home made French fries.
