Easy Homemade Beef Burger

INGREDIENTS

½ tbsp olive oil
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
500g Beef Mince
1 egg, beaten
4 Burger Buns
Few lettuce leaves, torn
1 tomato, sliced
4 slices mature Cheddar (optional)

1 tsp mixed dried herbs
ketchup, to serve (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened and starting to turn golden. Set aside.
2. In a bowl, combine the beef mince with the herbs and the egg. Season, add the onions and mix well. Using your hands, shape into 4 patties.
3. Cook the burgers on a preheated barbecue or griddle for 5-6 minutes on each side. While the second side is cooking, lay a slice of cheese on top to melt slightly (if using).
4. Meanwhile, lightly toast the cut-sides of the buns on the barbecue. Fill with the lettuce, burgers and tomato slices. Serve with ketchup, if you like.
