I just mentioned that these burgers can easily be baked in an oven.
They can also be made on the grill on medium heat, flipping as needed.
Here are some more great tips for you.
- The easiest way to form the burgers is to use your hands. If the burger becomes too sticky for your hands, try wetting your hands.
- This recipe calls for the burgers to be made on the stove. However, to make them more crisp or to make your burgers more like the grilled burgers, simply finish cooking them on the grill or in the oven.
- Leftover burgers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a few days, To warm them up simply place them on a warm skillet to heat up.

- Add the flour and any desired seasonings to the food processor. Process the ingredients until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- Preheat the skillet to medium heat. You can add additional oil as needed. To form the burgers, use your hands. If the burgers seem to be too sticky, simply wet your hands. If it is too wet you can dust your hands with flour as needed.
- Cook the burgers for about five to six minutes and flip. Continue to cook until done (golden brown) or crisp.
- Serve immediately.
