Directions
mix tomatoes, onions, mint and beef together by hand.
Add in egg and bread crumbs and fold (can substitute for regular bread crumbs we only had panko at the time). Make into 1-2 oz balls depending on how big you'd like the patty(here my mom used 1 oz) and make it into a patty. Add 1 tbsp of oil to heated pan, wait for it to heat up and gently place the hamburger patties one by one, cook until golden, and flip, make sure they are cooked through (the thicker the longer it will take), add more oil as needed as you switch batches.
