Notes
- Don't overwork the burger mixture when mixing by hand. This can make the burgers too tough and chewy.
- Put the burgers in the fridge for 30 minutes before cooking, as this will help them to stay together.
- You could make a low carb version of these by skipping the bun and using a giant lettuce leaf to hold the burger and toppings together. Obviously you wouldn't then put this back in the air fryer.
- To make sure the burgers don't swell in the centre during cooking, gently press your thumb into the centre of each one.
- Every air fryer is different and they cook at different rates. Check your burgers half way through to check they aren't burning.
- We recommend only cooking 2 burgers at a time so that you don't overcrowd your air fryer basket, otherwise they won't cook very well.
- The fattier the beef you use, the more that the patties will shrink during cooking.
