These burgers are really tasty with the addition of red kidney beans - it also makes the beef go further, which is always good for your budget! I find the children prefer these burgers to all-meat varieties.
Ingredients:
300g beef mince
half tin of red kidney beans
1 red onion, finely chopped
beef stock cube
30g oatmeal
1 egg
herbs
flaked chilli
salt & pepper
HOW TO MAKE:
Fry the onion in a little butter until soft. Allow to cool. Take half the beans and whizz up in a food processor. Once the onion is cooled, place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix together with your hands. Shape into burgers and refrigerate for at least an hour.
Brown burgers on both sides and finish off cooking in a moderate oven for 10 minutes.
I serve my burgers in either a flat bread or bun with oven chips. Cut potatoes into chips and bake in the oven with a little olive oil and salt for 45 minutes.
And nice way to get those healthy kidney beans into the kids, sneaky, love it, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHa ha!! It's sometimes nice to get them to eat something healthy in disguise without the big battle! And next time you put kidney beans in front of them, you can say they love them if questioned!
