Botham Burger

From The Naked Chef Takes Off by Jamie Oliver

makes 4 burgers

2 1/4 lbs ground beef
2 med red onions, finely chopped
2 large eggs
1-2 handfuls of fresh bread crumbs
1 Tb coriander seeds, crushed
1 small pinch of cumin seeds, crushed
1 heaped tea Dijon mustard
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 450. Mix and scrunch all the ingredients together. Use teh bread crumbs as required to bind and lighten the mixture. Divide into 4, then gently pat and lightly mold and pack each burger into smallish slightly flattened balls. Place in the oven and roast for 25 minutes, which should leave the middles slightly pink and the outsides nice and crispy. Serve with a grilled bun, a little salad, some gherkins, tomato salsa, a pint of Guinness and a bottle of ketchup.
