- Prepare your ingredients. Peel and dice your onion. In a medium heat pan, add 1 tablespoon of oil before adding in your onions. Sauté until tender and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, cooked onions, milk, panko, garlic powder, paprika and egg. Mix ingredients until combined, and then use your hands to knead the mixture.
- Flatten out the mixture before dividing up into four sections. Scoop out each portion and form them into patties. TIP: slap the patties on both sides to ensure air bubbles are released and patties do not crack while cooking.
- Place patties on a dish. Cover and let them sit in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- When the patties are ready, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan on medium heat and place the patties inside. Ensure there is about 1 inch of space between the patties. Make small indents in the center of the patties with your fingers, as the patties will rise while cooking.
- Cook on both sides for about 3-4 minutes or until both sides have browned.
- In a separate saucepan, heat up your Takumi.
- When the patties are ready, plate them and pour the sauce over each one.
- Serve them with white rice and your choice of vegetable. Enjoy!
