Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
1. Can I fry the patties instead of baking them? Yes, if you prefer frying, you can cook the patties in a pan with a little oil. Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes on medium heat until cooked through. However, baking them reduces the oil needed, making them a healthier option.
2. What can I serve with these patties? These patties pair well with mashed potatoes, rice, or a fresh salad. They can also be served in a bun as a burger for a fun variation.
3. Can I make these patties without cheese? Yes, you can skip the cheese or use a dairy-free alternative if needed. The patties will still be flavorful with the marinated onion, cucumber, and ketchup.
4. How do I know if the patties are cooked? The internal temperature of the patties should reach 75°C (165°F) for them to be fully cooked. You can also cut into one to check if the meat is no longer pink in the center.
5. Can I use fresh cucumbers instead of pickled cucumbers? Yes, if you prefer a milder flavor, fresh cucumbers can be used in place of pickled ones. However, the pickles add a nice tang that contrasts with the other flavors.
