Burgers

I found some mince in the supermarket in the reduced bit so decided to make some burgers for us all on Friday. I prefer to make my own burgers as I'm a fussy eater and like to know what has gone into them. I can't post a proper recipe as my scales have decided to conk out on me so I will just list what goes into them for now

450g mince (I prefer steak mince if it is available)

Bread crumbs *

2 tbsp Parmesan cheese finely grated

1 egg

1 tsp Smoked paprika

Salt and pepper

* I use the crusts of bread that the boys don't like eating, whizz them up and freeze them in a bag so I can use as much as I need for chicken nuggets, burgers or meatballs.

I mix the bread crumbs, cheese, paprika, salt and pepper together then pop that into a bowl with the mince then I crack and egg on top and mix it all up with my hands and finally shape into burgers using my burger squasher but you could just use your hands.

 

I got 6 burgers out of this so I used 4 for our dinner and popped the rest into the freezer for another day. We had the burgers with wedges and corn on the cob.

I'm not to sure what this blog will be about but I will start off with a little about me, I'm 32 from Suffolk and a single Mummy to two boys W 9 and T 7, I love days out, cooking, crochet, skincare and makeup.
