Instructions
- Mix the ground beef with the finely chopped onion and garlic, the egg, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper.
- Shape 4 patties about 1 cm thick, slightly hollowing the centre.
- Cook the patties in a hot pan for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until well browned and cooked through.
- Mix the ketchup, tomato sauce and soy sauce in a small bowl to make a sweet-salty sauce.
- Cook the fried eggs in another greased pan for 2 to 3 minutes, yolks still runny.
- Lightly toast the buns, then assemble the burgers: bun, lettuce, tomato, patty, sauce, fried egg.
- Serve with hot white rice and a few gherkins.
Variations and tips
Simple family version. Season the mince with a little soy sauce instead of paprika for a flavour closer to Sunday dishes.
