Ingredients

1kg lean beef mince (ground beef)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 egg
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp paprika
1-2tsp salt
cracked black pepper
4-6 slices of cheese
4-6 fresh, hamburger buns

For the Guacamole :
2 large, ripe avocados

Tomato & onion salsa:

1 large red onion, peeled and finely chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

Directions

Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Heat a large frying pan and add some oil.

Fry a small amount of the burger mixture to check the seasoning. Adjust if necessary.

Serve on a fresh bread roll with home-made salsa and guacamole.
