Looks like a good burger. The only thing I'm not too keen on is too much garlic in home made burgers, where you belch 3 hours later and it still smells of garlic..
That burger looks absolutely mint. Would you mind posting the recipe for the chilli burgers? I need a good burger recipe after the abortion that was the Tom Kerridge turkey burger we tried last weekend. They look gorgeous, smell fantastic, but the texture and taste was boring.
There isn't really a recipe for it - I've done this so many times that I just sorta wing it every time, but I can give you a few pointers.
Use 80/20 ground beef if you can find it. The more fat the better. I couldn't this time so I used 90/10 instead. Just be careful not to overcook it. And coarsely ground is preferable.
Put it into a bowl. With about 500g mince, mix in one finely chopped onion, about 1 teaspoon of chiliflakes, 1 teaspoon chilipowder, 1 teaspoon garlic granules, 1 tablespoon fish sauce and 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce.
Mix the ingredients well but keep the meat lose and take care to not overwork it. Likewise when you form the patties - pack them very losely. You don't want a densely packed patty. Place them in the fridge for at least 30 minutes after forming them. You have to cook them chilled as they tend to fall apart of they're too warm.
For the caramelized onions. Use two onions. Chop them and caramelize them on medium heat. Don't rush this - aim for 30 minutes. I added a third of a glass of pickled jalapeños the final 15 minutes.
No mustard!
2 eggs, beaten, a splash of milk and a dash or salt and pepper.
Dip a slice of bread into said mixture, lightly fry for a few minutes then enjoy, you can add your favourite condiment, i usually have either red or brown sauce.
Will try that out tomorrow for breakfast, it may warm up these cold days !
I haven't had French toast for at least 40 years !
I often have eggs left to dispose of before they reach their sell by date, I usually fry them or boil them or throw them away, now all I need is a decent welsh Rarebit recipe.
The one thing I can't eat are Omelettes the smell is rancid and if I fine a little uncooked egg inside it makes me feel sick.

A general guideline with Eggy Bread (French Toast) is never more milk than you have egg. So you can add nearly as much milk as you have egg if you want something with fluffy innards. You can leave the bread to soak for a bit rather than just dipping. Mostly egg will give you something more like a crispy-edged pancake. Always add a pinch of salt, and pepper is optional. (If you're American you'll add 2lb cinammon and 5 tons of sugar, but try not to be American).
You can fine-grate some cheddar to add to the egg and milk if you want to; then you're allowed to add a little mustard, but only if it's strong cheddar. You can also add some finely-grated mushrooms, but make sure your mix is fairly egg-rich to bind it together, and cook more slowly.
Another thing you might like to do is my Half-Egged Bread. You beat the egg and milk in a large shallow plate, then briefly soak the bread so it doesn't soak right through. Then transfer to the pan to fry the eggy side first, flip it over, and finish the other side off like fried bread. Excellent for adding beans for breakfast.

Use a good cheese and remember to toast the buns.
That's really it. Bon Appétit :)

I think it's not quite vibrant enough to be Ink 6, seems closer to the Commode's Yellow ... defend yourself Sir Polo!
I surprised myself by cooking a pretty good omelette, it had chorizo, mushrooms and chilli flakes in it.
In fact it's a good companion to everything! =P~

I understand "mushrooms". I love mushrooms. But it's the part before it that is evidently new to me. This is intriguing.
YES !!
YES !!
Would definitely scoff all of that, though I hope you'd already eaten some chips before taking the pic because it looks like quite a small portion...
Where's the mustard?
I'd eat it though. What flavour is the pizza? Can't quite make it out under the 45 chips...
No mustard dip to go with it?
Nope that was the lot. You don't get many in a portion.
