Posh home made burgers for the tastiest sizzling BBQs this summer.
Ingredients
- 675g (1½lb) beef sirloin or braising steak, cut into long thin strips
- 15ml (1 tbsp) chopped mixed fresh herbs e.g. parsley, thyme, basil
- juice and grated rind ½ lemon
- freshly ground black pepper
- flour, for dusting
- vegetable oil for cooking
For the onion rings:
- 1 small onion sliced into rings
- 1 egg white, lightly beaten
- 30-45ml (2-3 tbsp) plain flour
To serve:
- toasted slices crusty bread
- mixed salad leaves
Tools
- Kenwood Kitchen Machine
- Mincer
- K Beater
Method
- Fit the Mincer with the coarse screen and mince the beef into the Kenwood Bowl. For a finer texture pass through the screen again.
- Add the herbs, lemon juice and rind and a generous sprinkling of freshly ground black pepper. Using the K Beater at minimum speed, mix the ingredients together.
- Divide into 4 and with floured hands shape into thick burgers. Either brush with oil and place under a preheated grill for about 4 minutes on each side, or shallow fry over a medium heat.
- Meanwhile make the fried onion rings, dip the rings first into the egg white and then into the flour. Heat 2.5cm (1 inch) oil in a pan and fry for 1-2 minutes, until golden.
- Serve burgers garnished with onion rings accompanied by toasted crusty bread, mixed salad leaves and the remaining onion rings.
