Homemade beef burger with rhubarb chutney

Beefburger Ingredients:
500g Minced beef
1 Medium red onion
1 medium egg
6 sundried tomatoes
1 tsp cumin seeds
1/4tsp cayenne pepper
Beefburger Method:
1. Finely chop the onion to equal sizes. I try and use the best quality mined beef that I can afford. Mix all the ingredients together. The egg is used as a binding ingredient. The best way to mix the ingredients I find is to use my hands even though they do get icky.
2. Shape the mixture into beefburger shapes. I like to make a batch like this and freeze them. I rip a strip of baking parchment 8x30 inches and place a beef burger on the right, rotate and place then next beefburger on the left and rotate, etc etc.
3. When cooking my homemade burgers I like to brown the burgers in a non-stick pan before putting them under the grill. I put a slice of goats cheese on the top and back under the grill for 5 mins. For the best result when using top quality beef mince is to allow the burger to be a little pink in the centre.
