The burger is a classic that never fails, and this maxi version is perfect for a quick, hearty, and flavorful dinner. Made with mixed minced beef and pork, it is enriched with spring garlic, fresh spinach, and egg, achieving a juicy texture and a uniform mixture. This recipe is ideal for those looking for a casual but delicious meal, and it admits endless variations: you can use chicken, turkey, or beef only, and add boiled carrot or pine nuts to the mixture.
The preparation is very simple: mix all the ingredients with your hands, form 4 large balls, and flatten them. Cook them over low heat in a skillet, turning them until they are done to your liking. Serve them with tomato, lettuce, pickles, and marinated spring onion. If you want an extra touch, add mustard or tartar sauce. Surprise everyone with these huge and tasty burgers!

The ingredients can be varied. You can make chicken, turkey, veal burgers,... And the fillings that accompany the meat too: boiled carrots, pine nuts.
In a bowl, combine the meat with a pinch of salt, the finely chopped garlic, the egg and the fresh spinach cut into fine julienne strips.
We mix everything well with our hands so that everything is well distributed. If necessary, we can add a little breadcrumbs to give it more consistency. We must achieve a uniform and consistent dough.
From this dough we will make 4 small balls and crush them. This is the maxi version. From this mix, 8 normal hamburgers would come out. Put it in the pan on a slow fire.
As they get done, we turn them around. They will take longer or less depending on the thickness.
To accompany the hamburger, my recommendation can be sliced pickles, lettuce cut into thin julienne strips, sliced tomatoes or onions cut into julienne strips and macerated in vinegar and salt.
Assemble the hamburger and enjoy. Bon Appetit!
