Instructions
 

  • Peel and slice the onions. Put 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan and start sautéing the onions over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • In the meantime, mix the milk, spices and breadcrumbs in a bowl to soak up. After a couple of minutes, add the egg and mix well.
  • Cut the minced meat into small pieces in the bowl. Knead the pieces into a smooth dough and shape into 8 evenly sized patties - that's 2 meat patties per serving.
  • When the onions are cooked sweet, even slightly browned, spoon them out from the pan into a separate dish.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to the frying pan and fry the minced beef for a few minutes on the other side. Turn the steaks and divide the soft onion on top the steaks.
  • Fry the other side as well until cooked through but be careful not to fry so long that the steaks are dry.

Notes

  • Take your time with the onion. Use medium heat and let it soften for at least 10 minutes.
  • The patties stay juicier if you don't fry them until fully dry — pull them off the heat as soon as they're cooked through.
  • For a quick sauce, add a splash of cream to the pan at the end of cooking.
