It’s Mad Monday again! The first Monday of every month where I share with you a recipe that is very quick, but also is popular and a great family meal.
These burgers are amazing – particularly with some home made bacon jam and mayonnaise. These can be made into burgers or even small meatballs for party food and baked in oven. My daughter absolutely hates mushrooms and she had no idea they were in her burger! The lamb can be substituted for beef if you prefer.

Notes
MINCING MEAT:
I personally use round or rump steak to mince. I cut it into chunks and remove fat and sinew. It is important to remove all sinew where possible, as it does not mince at all well.
Meat is easier to mince when it is partially frozen. However it still works if you are not organised enough to have it partially frozen.
I mince 250g of meat at a time.
To mince the meat I press the Turbo button for 1 second twice. Depending on the consistency you like you can do it for 3 or 4 times for 1 second each.

Tonight my 14 yr old made us dinner. This was his choice, and it was delicious! The state of the kitchen afterwards perhaps not that great?.
