Ingredients

  • 500g (1.1lb) Steak / Beef mince (ground beef)
  • 1 small onion (grated)
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 zucchini (courgette)
  • 1 garlic clove (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 egg (lightly beaten)

Instructions

  • Grate the onion, carrot and zucchini and squeeze as much liquid out as possible (I placed the grated vegetables in a clean cloth to squeeze)
  • Place all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl and mix until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture into 6 and flatten to make burgers slightly bigger than your burger buns. (As they will shrink slightly when you cook)
  • Place an indent in the centre of each burger using your thumb. (This stops the burger from doming and shrinking)
  • Cook on a BBQ or place in a frying pan. Cook for ¾ mins on one side (until the bottom is nicely browned. Flip and cook for a further ⅔ mins until cooked through.Serve straight away
