hamburger (1/4 pound per
-person
1 T oil
Use only ground round. Allow 1/4 lb. per person. Shape that much
into 2 thin patties ( use the lid to an 8 oz. margarine cup in
which to shape the patties). Press hamburger into lid evenly. Makes
it very flat & uniform in size. It drops right out when you bend the
lid a bit. Place each patty on a square of waxed paper,
stacking these in a coffee can, with a tight fitting lid. Freeze
them this way to use within 3 months, removing only as many patties
as you need at a time. Lightly oil a flat grill, the kind you would
ordinarily use for making pancakes. Get the grill HOT and sear each
patty quickly in about 1 Tablespoon oil -- turning only once to sear the
other side. Then depending on the degree of doneness, adjust heat to
medium-low for additional cooking. Do not use a skillet with collared
sides or you'll trap in vapors, moisture and you will be "frying" the
hamburgers rather than searing them.
