Questions about Ground beef patty
How do you cook a ground beef patty in a frying pan?
Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium-high heat and cook a patty about 1.5 cm thick for roughly 3–4 minutes per side. Check the centre with a food thermometer: it should reach 75 °C.
What should you season a ground beef patty with?
Salt and black pepper are enough for a classic burger; add the salt just before cooking so it does not draw moisture from the meat. For a different flavour, mix in a little mustard, finely chopped onion or smoked paprika.
Can you freeze ground beef patties?
Yes. Freeze them raw, separated by baking paper in an airtight freezer bag or container, and use within about 3–4 months for best quality. Defrost in the fridge and cook promptly; avoid refreezing them raw after thawing.
How should you handle raw ground beef patties safely?
Keep them chilled until cooking, and wash your hands and any board or utensils that touched the raw meat. Cook the centre to 75 °C; do not put the cooked patty back on a plate that held it raw.
What goes well with a ground beef patty?
Serve it in a toasted bun with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles, or alongside chips and coleslaw. For a bun-free meal, try it with roasted potatoes and a crisp salad.
How much protein is in a typical ground beef patty?
An 85 g patty provides 22 g of protein.
Is a ground beef patty a good source of zinc?
Yes. It is high in zinc, providing 6.2 mg per 100 g.
