• 1 combine all the burger ingredients, except the olive oil, in a large mixing bowl. add as much or as little seasoning as you like, and stir with a fork or your hands. once the mixture is fully combined divide into 3 parts and use you hands to create three burgers/patties. the mixture will be quite moist, place the burgers on a plate and put in the fridge for 10 minutes to set.
• 2 meanwhile, combine the garlic mayo ingredients in a small bowl or mug and mix well. add a little water if necessary for consistency.
• 3 heat the olive oil in a frying pan and making sure the oil is very hot add the burgers and fry on both sides on a medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes or until dark brown on both sides. be very carefull with them to ensure they stay well formed.
• 4 once cooked remove from the pan and place in a burger bun or on a bed of spinach leaves (for wheat and carb free lovers) and drizzle the garlic mayo on top. any left overs can be re-heated gently in a pan. enjoy!
