Food Safety

Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps

  1. Combine all ingredients thoroughly. Shape into 4 patties. With the back of a teaspoon, make a depression in the center of each burger. This helps cook the center of the burger more quickly.

  2. Preheat barbecue on medium heat. Grill burgers with the barbecue lid closed until a thermometer inserted into a burger reads 165°F (74°C) – about 9 minutes per side.

  3. Serve on whole wheat buns topped with your favourite burger toppings.

Helpful Tip

Red and green cabbage coleslaw goes very well with these burgers.
