Instructions

Working time approx. 40 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Mix the first 6 ingredients well with a whisk or hand mixer until you have a smooth batter and set aside to swell. In the meantime, knead the minced meat with the finely chopped onions, eggs, breadcrumbs, spices, and finely chopped garlic cloves by hand and season to taste, adding more seasoning if necessary. Divide the meat mixture into 4 pieces and shape into a burger. I put one piece of the mixture between two sheets of plastic wrap and pressed it flat with a pan so that it was slightly larger than the bottom of the pan. I used a 16cm diameter pan, also for the pancakes. Now put the 4 pieces in the fridge and continue with the pancakes. Fry 8 nice pancakes from the batter in a pan with a little oil. After the pancakes, fry the burger fricka in the pan. Line a baking tray with baking paper, spread out 4 pancakes, and place the burger fricka on top. I topped it with roasted bell peppers and garnished it with onion rings. Puree the peeled tomatoes, season with oregano, basil, salt, and pepper, and drizzle some of it over each burger. Sprinkle with some grated cheese. Divide the remaining pancakes among the burgers, spread with the remaining pureed tomatoes, sprinkle with grated cheese, and bake in the oven at 180°C for about 15-20 minutes. A mixed salad goes wonderfully with this burger.
