Notes
Essential Tools

- measuring spoons
- bbq or grill pan
- chopping board
- sharp knife
Tips/Tricks
- shop bought harissa will also work but TRUST me once you make my homemade version you won't ever bought shop bought again
- cooking the burgers for 2 & 1/2 mins each side will cook a perfect MR burger so if you want them cooked more then another 30 seconds - 1 min a side will do
- the ratio is 3:1 lamb/pork mince so if you like your burgers a little bigger just follow that ratio when adding more mince***
