Burger Queen

One of my favorite fast food is burger, but little did I know that making one is actually pretty fast too. One new thing I learned from adapting this recipe from Jamie's book, is that you need breadcrumb to make burger. The ground beef was the leftover from the Bolognese sauce I had made earlier.

This was actually my second attempt and the first one had been a success too! Well, I actually made a mistake in the second attempt, because I liked how mustard taste, I added too much of it to the beef. It was okay, but I was thinking to add some soy sauce to tame the saltiness. (I'll try it tomorrow)

This dish is actually great and I'm kinda understand why it has fast food as its label. You can make the burger, then store it in the fridge, just fry it when you want to eat it. Put between good buns ( I bought mine at Roti Gempol, but you need to order it one day in advance to get your buns), add some chili sauce, mayo, mustard (again!), pickles, lettuce, cheese, whatever. 

And midnight craving problem is solved! Fast!

ingredients and how to cook the burger : ground beef, mustard, parsley (finely chopped), pepper, salt, breadcrumbs, egg (beaten). Mix up all ingredients with your hands // shape into roundish shape // drizzle with olive oil // store in the fridge if you don't want to eat them straight away, and actually it'll help the meat to firm up // heat your pan on high heat for 4 mins, turn down into medium heat // put burgers on pan, press them down with burner, make sure they are in full contact with the pan // cook them until your liking on both sides (mine usually 3 - 4 mins).

Ps : on the book, instead of breadcrumbs, Jamie used smashed saltine crackers.
