Golden, pan-fried German-style meat patties made with ground beef, onions, and parsley. Perfectly seasoned and crisped on the outside, juicy and tender inside. A comforting dish that’s simple to make and full of flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 500g ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, finely grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large eggs
  • 100g breadcrumbs (about 1 cup)
  • 1 tablespoon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2–3 tablespoons oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a thin layer of oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, grated onion, minced garlic, eggs, breadcrumbs, mustard, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined.
  3. Ensure your pan is heated to medium and not too hot.
  4. Form the mixture into oval patties about 1 inch thick.
  5. Place patties in the skillet, leaving space between them. Cook for 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Let the patties rest on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. Serve warm with mashed potatoes, mustard, or in a sandwich.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the meat to keep patties tender.
  • Use soaked breadcrumbs for extra moisture.
  • Let mixture rest before shaping for best results.
