Place the onion and mushrooms
in a food processor and process until finely chopped . Add
the veal, breadcrumbs, herbs, tomato puree and seasoning.
Process for a few seconds, until the mixture binds
together but still has some texture.
-
Divide the mixture into four,
then press into burger shapes using lightly floured hands.
-
To cook, place the burgers on
a microwave proof roasting rack and microwave, uncovered,
for 6-7 minutes, turning over once. Leave to stand for 2-3
minutes .

Alternatively, for a browner
and crisper result, preheat a microwave browning dish
according to the manufacturer's instructions. Add the
burgers, pressing down well on to the base and microwave
on HIGH for 5-5½ minutes, turning
over once. Leave to stand for 2-3 minutes. Serve with
relish and lettuce, in burger buns or pitta bread.

This recipe is suitable for
cooking in a combination microwave. Follow the oven
manufacturer's timing guide for good results.
