Whole grain mustard Burger

 

This is my perfect go to meal when there's a sporting event on that uses a ball, stick, puck, glove, dart, bat.... Try this burger and you'll know what I mean about how well it pairs with sports. This quick, easy recipe and can be prepared well in advance of game time and will cook up faster than it takes to stand in line for your greasy stadium grub, so be thankful for not scoring those tickets and enjoy the whole meal that'll cost less than a stadium beer.

400 grams of beef mince 
1 onion diced 
1 tsp whole grain mustard 
1/2 tsp of worcestershire sauce  
1 egg yolk 
1 cup of breadcrumbs  

Fry off the onions and set aside to cool before adding to the beef with all the remaining ingredients, combine together and form two patties then fry in a hot pan (really, it's that simple). Build your burger on a fresh sesame bun, I like to add bacon, tomato, aioli, arugula and cheese (anything that melts well, I'd recommend goats cheese or an aged cheddar). Pair with a chilled beer.
