Monday Burger


Dinner was late tonight. It was 8.30 when dinner was served. The children wanted to have burger so it took a little while to bake fresh burgers.

I started at 630, by the time the dough was ready, shaped and proved, it went into the oven at 8 o'clock! The rest of the ingredients were easy. Lots of Lettuce, tomato, pickles, mustard, avocado, fried onion and button mushroom with homegrown thyme and not forgetting roast beef . It was alot faster preparing
the ingredients than the burger itself.

The wait was worth it, the taste great and of course no added preservative in the bread!
Laura and I had 1 burger each while Edward and Loraine had 2 each! Well, 3 more buns for tomorrow.....

  2. Hi Jane,

    Wow, I am delighted that you like my blog. Thank you!

    Sure, the receipe for this is :
    400g Bread Flour
    100g Plain Flour
    4g salt
    35g castor sugar
    50g Butter
    10g Yeast
    10g Skimmed Milk Powder
    290g Cold Water
    25g Eggs (1 egg)

    Put all dry ingredients in the mixer except the salt. Mix and add water and egg, Mix for 1 min on low speed and then 3 mins for speed 2. Add butter, mix for 1 min and then lastly salt for another 1 min. When the ingredients are all mixed, speed up to another 3 mins on speed 2.

    Prove for an hour, weigh the dough and cut into equal weight so that baking is even.
    Shape them and prove for another 15mins or longer.

    Preheat oven to 200 degrees and bake for 20 mins.

    Enjoy!
