Ingredients
2 litres rice bran oil, for frying
2 onions
500 g beef mince
1 pickle, finely chopped
2 tsp SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste
40 g cheddar cheese in 4 g cubes
2 cups flour
4 eggs, beaten
4 cups panko breadcrumbs
SIDS TAMARILLO SAUCE for serving
Directions
Preheat oil to 175°C in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot fitted with an oil thermometer.
Slice onions crosswise into 2 cm rounds, discard centres and peels, separate rings and lay them flat on a cutting board.
In a medium bowl, add beef, pickle and SIDS SALT & PEPPER then mix with your hands until just combined. Press beef into each onion ring, filling them halfway. Stick a cube of cheese in the center of each ring, fill the rest of the way with more beef. Level them off so the sides are flat.
Place flour in one shallow bowl, eggs in another and panko in another. Dredge patties in the flour, then eggs, then panko, coating thoroughly.
Fry 2-3 at a time for 4 minutes, flipping them halfway. Transfer to a wire rack to drain. Serve immediately with SIDS TAMARILLO SAUCE.
