Chilli steak burgers
I can never say no to anything cooked with chillies. If you are giving this to kids, you might consider not putting in too much chilli, but I make one just for myself that almost burns. You can experiment with different types of chillies until you find the perfect combination. For me, Jalapeños are my favourite!
Note :
Preparation time 40 mins
Serves approx 4
Ingredients
- 481g of frying steak
- 4 multi-seeded rolls
- 2 green chilies
- Olive oil,
- Salt
- black pepper
Instructions
Pre-heat the oven to 190C
Make the burgers fist as you need to rest them in the fridge for a while after making them. Take a large bowl and add 2 very finely chopped green chillies (seeds included) and the steak also very finely chopped (you can use a food processer for the steak).
Season well with salt and pepper and mix well.
To assemble the burgers (the mixture will make 4 burgers); make a ball of about ¾ of the size of a tennis ball, roll around the palm of your hands and then flatten into a burger shape about 2cm in thickness. Place the burgers on a lightly oiled plate and put in the fridge for 30 minutes.
In order to cook the burgers, I’m going to assume a medium cook is ok for this recipe’s purposes.. Get a griddle pan on a high heat and let the pan heat up for a few minutes.
When the pan is smoking hot, rub the burgers with a little olive oil and place in the pan.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side.
Try not to press down on them and try not to move around too much as you lose heat in the pan.
Once cooked rest for 2 minutes in a warm place.
If you take out the chilli, these can be made as standard hamburgers too.
