Here's a simple and delicious beef burger patty recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound (500g) ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg (optional, for binding)
Instructions:
1. **Mix Ingredients**: In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, ginger garlic paste sauce, salt, pepper, ketchup red chilli sauce If using, add the egg and breadcrumbs to help bind the mixture.
2. **Form Patties**: Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4-inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent the burger from puffing up during cooking.
3. **Preheat Grill or Pan**: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4. **Cook Patties**: Cook the patties on the grill or in the skillet for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (use a meat thermometer to check; 160°F (70°C) for well-done).
5. **Rest Patties**: Remove the patties from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes.
6. **Assemble Burger**: Serve the patties on burger buns with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, cheese, and mayonnaise like ketchup, and mayonnaise.
