Yield 12 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

600 g minced beef
2 medium onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon garlic paste
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 cup fresh cilantro (Coriander leaf), chopped
1/2 cup mint, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoon corn starch (flour)
2 eggs
Oil for cooking

Steps:

  • As we said earlier, our first step is to remove the excess fat content from the minced beef. To do this, let's soak the beef in boiled water. 1. Place the minced beef in a large bowl. 2. Boil enough water to cover the beef. 3. When it starts boiling, turn off the heat and slowly pour the water into the bowl placed with beef. Using a spoon, gently give it a stir. At this point, you'll see a change in the color of the beef. Allow it to rest for about 2 minutes. This step will not only help to remove the fat content but also remove the blood and dirt from the beef. 4. Stir once again and transfer this to a steel colander. 5. Wash the minced beef under tape water twice. 6. Allow it to rest in the colander for about 10 minutes to strain excess water. 7. After 10 minutes, transfer the minced beef to a large bowl. 8. Add all the ingredients except oil and mix with a spatula until combined. 9. Now give a good mix with your hand until the mixture is good enough for shaping. 10. When its done, divide into equal portions. (We made 12 burgers with this.) 11. Shape each of them into burgers with your palm. Be light or you'll break it. 12. When you're done, place them in a separate plate and allow it sit in the fridge for about 1 hour. 13. Heat oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. If you put them on high heat, the insides won't get cooked well. 14. Place the burgers into the pan and fry them until both sides are browned. Another trick to keep the burgers moistened is to cover the pan with a lid while frying and you won't end up with dried burgers. Healthy homemade burgers are ready to be served. You can serve it with some sauce/ketchup or as a side along with plain white rice. They taste best when they are still hot.
