Beef burgers with a touch of Garlic and Lemon Zest
Ingredients:
- 8 medium Tomatoes
- 2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
- 60 ml Olive oil
- 1.5 kg minced Beef
- 2 tsp finely grated Lemon zest
- 4 cloves Garlic, crushed
- 1 tbsp fresh Oregano, roughly chopped
- 1 loaf Ciabatta
- 200 g Fetta, crumbled
- 100 g baby Rocket leaves
Method:
- Cut tomatoes into wedges, drizzle with some vinegar and olive oil and cook uncovered in the hot oven for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine beef, lemon zest, garlic and oregano in a large bowl, shape them into 8 patties, cook them on grill or barbecue until brown on both sides and cooked through.
- Cut bread into 16 slices, brush with oil and garlic, cook on the grill until golden brown.
- Serve patties on warm bread with rocket, fetta and roast tomatoes on top.
Tip:
- Make Patties slightly larger than your bread as they will shrink after cooking.
- Avoid overmixing the ingredients as this can make the mixture heavy and dense.
