Method

Prep

10min

Cook

15min

Finely chop the onion and put into a microwaveable bowl, Cover with cling film and put in the microwave for 1 minute.

Into another bowl, put the minced meat, cooled onions and all other ingredients. Mix by hand thoroughly.

Divide into 4. Flatten into oval-shaped burgers and press slightly in the middle (the burger will rise as it heats).

Put vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the burgers on a high heat with the lid on. If you can only fry two at a time, make half the quantity of the sauce and repeat until all burgers are cooked.

When the burger are browned after 2 minutes, turn them over until browned, again with the lid on.

Turn down the heat to low and pour in 100ml water and replace the lid, steaming the burgers for 7-8 minutes.

Now add red wine, ketchup, mustard and soy sauce to the pan on a low heat. You can stir occasionally and turn the burgers as the sauce thickens.

It's ready to serve, so enjoy with some vegetables.

Tips & Note

Mixing the main ingredients very well by hand is the key. It's also important to fry on a high heat to get a good colour before steaming gently on a lower heat, this makes the meat very tender. It's also delicious with cheese on top. I introduced this recipe because I often hear about people making hamburgers that are too hard and dry, these are soft and tender.

Osso Buco

Osso Buco, which translates as “hole of bone” is pure meaty awesomeness. Placing on a bed of risotto or polenta pays tribute to Osso Buco’s roots and takes this Italian comfort food to another level. Traditionally, Osso Buco is made with veal but see how I make Beef Osso Buco, a carnivorous wreath.

Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs, Sous Vide

It can be difficult to make a perfect hard-boiled egg that has a creamy yolk and a tender white. Overcooking a hard-boiled egg, which is easy to do, results in a chalky and sometimes greenish yolk, a rubbery egg white and a slightly sulfuric taste. In this video I demonstrate how I use my sous vide to get the perfect hard-boiled egg.
