The Ultimate Beef Burger
This is a classic burger recipe that requires zero fuss. We have added Dijon mustard and chilli flakes to give these patties a slight kick and paired it with our homemade caramelised onions.

Have to say this was was so easy and tasty and my burger was perfect. The Onions turned out perfect. Just wish there was a not on heat for oven and pan? I'm lucky as i have good pans and a newish oven but might help to have that.

I just made them the first time and followed the recipe, however tried to guess how much a “small” courgette weighs as I only had a giant one. The end result was an extremely soft pattie to the point that we all forced it down as it felt nearly uncooked. The flavour was ok although it would be good if it suggested the amount of salt needed as I guessed again and it would have needed much more salt. That’s very individual though I know. I did. squeezed the moisture out of the grated courgette, but maybe I used too much and that’s why they were so soft. I just know I definitely won’t be following the recipe again.

These burgers are delicious and so easy to put together. I skipped the caramelised onion and just made the patties and will definitely be using this recipe again and again.
