Hamburgers with Herbs - (Biftekia)

NOTES

Greek : Μπιφτέκια
Serves / Yields : 4 persons
Season:All season

INGREDIENTS

• 2 slices of bread, soaked in water for 10 minutes
• 1 kg minced beef or pork
• 1 large grated onion
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon oregano
• 2 tablespoons thyme
• some chopped parsley
• salt and black pepper
• 1 lemon, to garnish

METHOD

Squeeze excess moisture from the bread and discard the crusts. Mix together all the ingredients, in a bowl, by hand. Let this mixture stand for half an hour if you have the time. Make large, round, flattened hamburgers and grill under a hot grill, approximately 3 minutes on each side; or even better place them on an oiled grid and barbecue them approximately 5-6 minutes on each side, according to the strength of the fire. They should be slightly undercooked inside and moist; turn them over once, but do not let them get scorched. Serve them with quartered lemons on the side of the platter, with some fresh salad.
