Healthier Hamburgers
Ingredients
1 ¾ cups / 400g extra-lean minced beef
1 high welfare egg
Four whole grain burger buns
1 cup / 50g mushrooms, finely diced
½ cup / 25g shallot, diced finely
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large tomato, sliced
6-8 whole lettuce leaves
2 tbsp low sugar ketchup
2 tbsp low fat mayonnaise
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Salt and freshly-ground pepper to taste
Optional toppings, e.g., sliced red onion, cheese, relish, or gherkins
This tasty treat is perfect for game day or barbecue.
Directions
In a deep bowl, mix together the beef, mushrooms, shallot, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and egg. Stir until thoroughly combined, season with salt and pepper, and set aside in a fridge for an hour
When ready to serve, shape the mixture into slim patties (it helps to have wet hands)
Brush the patties with oil and cook on a hot grill or frying pan for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through
Lightly toast the burger buns until golden brown
Mix together the ketchup and mayonnaise in a small ramekin and spread onto the burger buns
Assemble the burgers, adding lettuce, tomato and any other toppings of your choice
