Karbonader (Lean Beef Patties) with Caramelized Onions

Grate half an onion and set aside. Slice the rest of the onions and fry in butter on low/medium heat until caramelized.

In a bowl, mix together ground beef, grated onion, salt, pepper, nutmeg, potato/corn starch, and water.

Form into a sausage and cut 6 patties. Using a knife make a light grid pattern in each patty.

Brown both sides of the karbonader in butter on high heat, then turn down to low heat and fry for another 2 – 3 minutes.
