Preparation
- Soak the bread roll in the milk so it softens completely. Meanwhile, fry the onion in the oil for around 8 minutes, or until soft and golden. Add the fried onion to the beef mince along with the egg, garlic, marjoram and some seasoning. Squeeze the excess milk from the bread roll and add to the mince. Mix everything together and season well.
- Divide the mixture into 8 patties. Tip the breadcrumbs into a shallow bowl and coat the patties all over. Heat some oil in a deep frying pan and fry the patties in batches on both sides until browned and cooked through, about 6–7 minutes on each side.
