    Beef burgers / beef meat balls in tomato sauce

    Ensure you meat is very cold, (almost frozen)
    Add the other ingredients and mix well.
    Nead the mixture for around 5 minutes until you
    notice the fat starting to stick to the side of the
    mixing bowl. This causes the fat to bind with the
    meat proteins and gives a firmer burger.

    Form into individual burgers and cook.

    Alternatively, make as above using 500g of meat
    and form into small balls.

    Brown these off in a frypan and transfer to a
    casserole dish. now fry 1 onion diced in the
    remaining oil in the pan for a few minutes until soft,
    add 2 cloves of garlic (crushed) and cook until
    golden. Add 1tsp each of paprika, oregano and basil,
    fry for 1 minute. Add 1tbsp tomato puree and fry 1
    minute. empty pan into casserole dish. now to the
    casserole dish add 1 tin of chopped tomatos and a
    glass of wine. Works well with red or white. Cover
    and stick in the oven at 160oC for around 2hrs or
    until the sauce has thickened.
