Home Made Burger

My niece Lydia & I tried out this home made burger recipe from Chef Bob of Hotel UiTM Shah Alam one evening. After we finished with the meat part, then only we realised that we didn't have any bun to go with it. So I looked in Alex Goh's book and tadaaa... Try it.. Very simple and easy to make.

Burger

Ingredients:

• Minced Beef/Lamb/Chicken
• Chopped Carrot
• Chopped Onion (I used yellow onion)
• Breadcrumbs
• Salt & Pepper
• Egg

*I added some garlic and chopped celery as well

Mix everything together, shape them as you like, and refrigerate. Take them out once you want to grill them.

3. Let it prove for about 45 min or double in size.
   
4. Divide the dough into 80g portions, mold into balls and put into greased pan.
5. Let them prove for 15 min, then flatten slightly and continue to let them prove for 30 min.
