Newly married Lindsay Kleynhans from Hirsch’s made her husband’s favourite burger using a progressive burger press, a fun kitchen gadget that is so easy to use.

Ingredients:
• Four burger buns or large grilled Portobello mushrooms for a healthy alternative.
• 500g lean mince
• One egg
• One cup of bread crumbs
• A mix of your favourite herbs and spices
• Cheese for the filling (you can add anything you like, jalapenos or peppers work well with the cheese).

Garnish:

• Burger mayo or sauce of your choice
• Crisp lettuce
• Tomato

Method:
• Mix all ingredients together, except the cheese, buns and garnish, until well combined.
• Divide into eight round balls.
• Press one of the meat balls into the burger press and place the cube of cheese on top, add another meat ball on top and using the burger press lid press down on the patty until the edges close.
• Place the burger patties on a baking tray and bake for approximately 20 minutes depending on how you like them done, or try them on the braai for a family fun evening of burger making and stuffing.

Makes four large patties.
