ingredients

600g beef mince
3 mushrooms, finely grated
1 400g can of brown lentils, drained and rinsed
1 small brown onion, diced or grated
1/4 cup bread crumbs
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 egg
2 tbsp parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Olive oil, for cooking

method

In a large mixing bowl, add mince, mushrooms, drained lentils, brown onion, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, egg, parsley, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Once mixed, shape into small burger patties. If these are a little sticky or having trouble staying together, add a little breadcrumb until the mixture is firm.
In a deep non-stick pan, heat a splash of olive oil over medium high heat. Add patties into the pan and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, until cooked through with no pink in the centre (71°C).
Once cooked - build your burger! Or eat with a side salad.
