Minute Steak Breakfast Burgers

Recipe

Preparation: 5 minutes
Cooking: 10 minutes
Ready in: +- 15 minutes
Variations: Substitute minute steaks with thinly sliced sirloin steak.

Servings: 2
Tips: Lightly toast the inside of the bagels in a hot pan and/or heat them in the oven before serving to prevent the bread from getting soggy.

INGREDIENTS

4 x +-75g minute steaks

2 x brown steak mushrooms

1 large tomato, thickly sliced

2 eggs

Wild rocket

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Olive oil, for frying

2 fresh bagels, sliced

Butter, optional for bagels

Bacon, optional

METHOD:

1. Heat a pan on a medium-high heat, add a splash of oil and fry the mushrooms until they are cooked through and the slices of tomatoes until they are soft and caramelised on the outside. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

2. Season the minute steaks with salt and freshly ground black pepper and fry in a pan with some oil on a high heat for about 1 minute on each side. Set aside to rest.

3. Whilst the steaks are cooking, crack the two eggs in a separate pan and fry to your liking (soft eggs with runny yokes are recommended). 

4. Build each burger by layering the bagels with fresh wild rocket, hot tomato slices and a mushroom. Stack two minute steaks on top of each mushroom and finish them off with a soft fried egg.
