Beef & Pork Patty

For this recipe you need:

• Mix of Ground Beef and Pork 700 gr (choose any ratio)
• Onion 1 small or half a medium
• Potato 2 medium
• Carrot 2 small
• Chopped Fresh parsley Half a cup
• Chopped Fresh Cilantro Half a cup
• Tomato 3 medium
• Olive Oil 3 tbs

Spices:
• Turmeric (optional) 1/2 tsp
• Sumac (optional) 1 tsp
• Mixed Dried Herbs (optional) 1 tsp
• Dried Mint (optional) 1 tsp
• Salt & black pepper to taste

Instructions:
1- Preheat oven to 180˚C or 350˚F
2- Peel the onion, potatoes, and carrots and then grate them, using a electric or box grater (use the side with the bigger holes).
3- In a big bowl combine thoroughly the meat, grated ingredients, and all the spices. Then add the parsley and cilantro and mix again.
4- Grease a large and oven-proof pan with olive oil.
5- Make small patties out of the mixture and place them in the pan (to avoid the patties sticking to your hands, have a bowl of cold water to wet your hands first), leave some space between them.
6- Slice the tomatoes and place them in between the patties. Sprinkle some salt and black pepper on the tomatoes and spray some oil on top of everything.
7- Put the pan in the oven and cook for 30 min. After 30 min, take the pan out and check if the bottom sides of the patties are golden brown. If so, flip them and let the other sides cook for another 20 min or until light brown.
8- Serve with rice or your choice of bread.
