HAMBURGER DELIGHT

- Hamburger delight!

The good part about making your own burger is that you get to decide on what kind of fillings you want for your burger– from the choice of meat, vegetables and sauces.

Burgers are the ultimate ‘cheat treat.’ Imagine a fresh burger in your hands, and you bite into and feel your taste buds tantalised and all those sauces run down your lips and chin, and you lick them delightful­ly, as you close your eyes for a second and feel a sensory high as you slowly chew each morsel. Yummy!

Burgers are a good option when you don’t feel like cooking whole meals but want to prepare something that is delicious and filling. The good part about making your own burger is that you get to decide on what kind of fillings you want for your burger– from the choice of meat, vegetables and sauces.

The below recipe is for a traditiona­l hamburger, and you can substitute the listed ingredient­s with those of your choice.

This recipe serves two people.

You will need:

*Burger rolls (the fresher the better!) *Beef (You can buy frozen patties, make your own with mince or cook steak portions)
