Directions

There is nothing like a home made juicy beef burger...and my father, the biggest food critic, said 'Nosaiba, these are better than the ones we buy'. Obviously this made me super happy, as a compliment about food from theee dad is indeed a great achievement! Lol. Funny thing is, I kind of added whatever I thought would go well in a burger mix, to make a really juicy flavoursome beef burger.
  1. Mix all the above ingredients in a bowl, except the vegetable oil, until well incorporated
  2. Cover the bowl and place in the fridge for at least half an hour (this helps the meat to become more firm)
  3. Place the vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, take a handful of meat mixture, and make a patty using your hand (the thickness is solely up to how you like your burger, thick or thin). Alternatively use a burger press
  4. Fry until browned, then flip over. Check the centre of at least one meat burger if cooked through by cutting through the middle. Remove and let it rest on a plate

The accompaniments to a beef burger can make all the difference. I made fresh coleslaw (please feel free to ask if you don't know how to make this), cut up onions, tomato, pickled turnips, gerkins, jalepenos and made chips. InshAllah you make these delicious burgers and enjoyyyy :)
