Veal Burger a la Russe image

This is a recipe for one burger. It comes from Craig Claiborne, who wrote about it in 1985. He started the article with the following question and answer: "What do I cook for myself when I dine at home alone? It is a natural question, and as a person who is single and makes his livelihood from food, I probably hear it more often than most people do. In these hectic times, it may come as a surprise to much of this country's population that anyone would bother to cook a meal for just himself or herself. That is a depressing comedown for what should be one of life's more enjoyable and festive rituals." This burger, crisp and creamy at once, proves his point.

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 pound lean ground veal
4 tablespoons fine fresh bread crumbs
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon corn, peanut or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Put the veal in a mixing bowl and add half the bread crumbs, salt and pepper to taste, all the nutmeg and cream. Beat with wooden spoon to blend well.
  • Gather the mixture into a ball and dredge on all sides in the remaining bread crumbs. Flatten the mixture into a round patty about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Heat oil in a small, heavy skillet and add the patty. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn the patty and continue cooking about 7 minutes.
  • Remove the patty to a warm plate. Add the butter to the skillet and cook until foamy. When butter starts to turn light brown pour it over the patty.
