Juicy Hamburgers with beetroot

Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 550g beef mince (like topside, a little fat goes a long way)
  • 1/2 large brown onion, grated for mince
  • the other 1/2 sliced thickly for the burger
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tsp Tabasco sauce (optional), or to taste
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh continental parsley
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs, made from day-old bread
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • Salt & ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
  • flour for dusting
  • 4 hamburger buns, halved
  • 350grm tin of Sliced Beetroot
  • 150g vintage cheddar cheese, thinly sliced, to serve
  • 1 tin (about 450g) ripe tomatoes,
  • 6 strong lettuce leaves, i.e Cos / Iceberg shredded, to serve

Method

  1. Prepare all your ingredients before you begin.
  2. Place the beef mince, onion, garlic Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce parsley, breadcrumbs and egg in large bowl. Season with Mustard, salt and pepper. Mix with your hands until evenly combined.
  3. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions (you can use a 125mls / 1/2 cup measuring cup if you like). Shape each portion with your hands into a patty about: 10cm in diameter and 1.5cm thick.
  4. Place the patties onto a tray lined with- greaseproof paper. lightly dust with flour. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to rest. Chilling the patties will help them hold together when cooked.
  5. This also allows the flavours in the patties to blend and develop. If you chill the patties for any longer, increase the cooking time slightly.
  6. Heat half the olive oil in a large, non-stick frying pan or BBQ over medium-low heat and cook half the patties for about 4 minutes on each side or until browned and cooked through. Transfer the patties to a plate, set aside and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining oil and patties.
  7. also add the 1/2 large brown onion sliced thickly to slowly caramelize.
  1. Meanwhile, preheat grill on high. Place the hamburger buns, cut-side up, under the preheated grill and toast for 1 minute or until golden. Leave the grill on.
  2. To serve, top the bottom halves of the toasted hamburger buns with the patties, beetroot slices and then the cheese slices. Return the bottom bun halves under the grill for 1 minute or until the cheese is just melted. Top each with the sliced tomato, tomato sauce and shredded lettuce, sprinkle with salt and pepper and then cover with the hamburger bun tops.

Eat this delicious burger with anything red in particular, Malbec, Shiraz, Tempranillo or even a bold southern Rhone red blend like Gigondas!

Notes & tips

  • Prep: 20-25 mins (+ 30 mins chilling time).
  • This same recipe could Double a a recipe for Rissoles...Yum!
  • Tip: To freeze, separate the patties with non-stick baking paper or freezer wrap, pack flat into freezer bags and seal. Freeze for up to 1 month and transfer to the fridge to defrost 12 hours before cooking.
  • For extra effect serve with hand cut crispy oven baked chips...covered in salt.
