Simple, yet delicious take on traditional burgers, with veal meat, herbs and mozzarella cheese

Top tips for making stuffed burgers

You don’t need to use a burger press, but you do need to pinch down all the sides of the burgers and push everything well together (so that the burger don’t fall apart)

Don’t overfill your stuffed burgers (you can always add more ingredients as a toppings!)

Grill or cook in a medium heat and make sure your grill or frying pan is hot enough before you start adding the burgers in

Leave them to chill for a minimum of 30 minutes (or longer) in the fridge

How do you keep stuffed burgers from falling apart?

I know you are in a hurry, but the best thing to do is to leave the made stuffed burgers in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes to chill the meat. Ideally you can prepare the burgers in the morning for an evening/afternoon barbecue.

It also helps to use filling that’s not going to easily come out (like mozzarella or feta cheese). Another thing that’s important is not to over fill your burgers – less is more, but sometimes it’s a trial and error thing.

Make sure that you pinch the sides of your stuffed burger before you chill it and also make sure that the cheese is completely covered with the burger meat.

What’s other stuffing ingredients can I use for my burgers?

There are so many other options and to be honest – anything goes!

  • Fetta Cheese mixed with chives or chopped up onions
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Creamed cheese & chives
  • Mushroom
  • Blue cheese
  • Bacon & Mushroom
  • Bacon & Cheddar cheese

What to serve your burger with

This veal burger is great with a brioche bun or soft bread rolls, but can also be served with a chunk of homemade rye bread and yum yum pickles or pickled gherkins.
