I absolutely love these burgers. The taste you get from using crackers to bind everything together is amazing, and layered up with salad and cheese just brings out all the flavours. I make the full amount of burgers and freeze the other 2 patties for another time.
1. Smash up the crackers till they are mostly fine powder (I like to leave a few small chunks in there for a bit more texture) using either a teatowel (wrap them up and smash them with a rolling pin) or use a food processor.
2. Mix all of the burger ingredients in a large bowl and scrunch everything up with your hands to mix thoroughly. Shape into 6 large flat burgers and place on a tray in the fridge till needed (this helps to firm them up).
3. When you are ready to cook them, heat a large frying pan and add a splash of olive oil. Make sure the pan is super hot before putting the burgers in. Carefully put the burgers in the pan and fry for 4-5 minutes on each side.
4. Slice the burger buns in half. Spread over any sauce of your choice - I used tomato on the bottom and mustard on the top. Then layer over the lettuce, a fine slice of beef tomato and onion.
4. When the burgers are cooked, place a cheese slice on each of the burgers while in the pan still to melt. Once melted place the burgers on the buns and finish off with the top bun.
5. I like to serve mine with freshly cooked homemade chips. Enjoy!
