List of Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup warm tap water
1/3 cup dry oatmeal or bread crumbs
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 or 2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper Recipe
Place the raw hamburger in a bowl. Add the water, oatmeal, onion, garlic,
salt and pepper. Use your hands to mix and mash the stuff all together
until everything is blended evenly. Shape the mixture into patties with
your hands. Make four large patties or 6 smaller ones. Preheat a skillet
over medium-high heat for a couple of minutes. Place the patties onto the
dry preheated skillet. Sear them on one side, cooking until they are a
nice
dark brown. Then flip them over with a pancake turner and turn down the
heat to medium low. Cover the pan with a lid or a pizza pan. Allow the
burgers to cook slowly for at least ten minutes. Turn them over again,
recover and cook for five more minutes. They should be a lovely crusty
brown on the outside, and gray colored inside, all the way through to the
center. Drain the burgers on paper towels or brown paper bags for a moment
or two before serving. These can be served on buns with all the normal
burger fixing. However, they are equally good plain, as individual meat
loaves. Serves 4. Double this recipe to serve a hungry family of 6. Good
with spinach, instant mashed potatoes and canned pineapple.
