  1. In a large bowl, gently mix together beef mince, egg, diced onion, breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Do not overmix.
  2. Form the mixture into 4 thick oval patties.
  3. In a skillet with olive oil, brown each patty for about 3–4 minutes per side.

Notes

Use quality beef mince for better flavor. Don’t skip browning — it adds depth. Add extra vegetables like carrots or peas for variety. To store, refrigerate up to 3 days or freeze for 2 months.
