Instructions
For the burgers:
- In a large bowl combine the ground bread crumbs, grated garlic, black pepper, salt, Korean red pepper flakes, grated cheese, spinach and olive oil and mix.
- Add the ground beef and incorporate it into the breadcrumb mixture. Do Not overmix.
- Form into desired size patties.
- Cook to the desired doneness; Do Not press the burgers; it will release all the good juices. The softer the burger the more rare the burger is, the firmer the burger the more well done the burger is. Gently, do this test. I cooked these for about 3 - 4 minutes per side for a medium-well burger.
