Treat your ingredients with care...
- Ground beef — Choose lean ground beef for a healthier option. If you prefer a juicier patty, opt for ground beef with a slightly higher fat content.
- Worcestershire sauce — Look for a gluten-free Worcestershire sauce if you have dietary restrictions.
- Capers — Rinse the capers before chopping them to remove excess saltiness.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra burst of flavor, add a dash of hot sauce to the tangy sauce.
- If you prefer a milder onion flavor, soak the chopped onions in cold water for a few minutes before adding them to the beef mixture.
- Customize the seasoning by adding herbs like thyme or rosemary to the beef mixture.
- If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use yellow mustard as a substitute.
- To make the patties ahead of time, shape them and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before cooking.
Serving advice
Serve the English-style Beef à la Lindström with a generous dollop of mashed potatoes and a side of steamed vegetables. The tangy sauce pairs perfectly with the creamy potatoes, creating a harmonious combination of flavors.
Presentation advice
Arrange the beef patties on a platter, spoon the tangy sauce over them, and garnish with fresh parsley. The vibrant colors of the sauce and parsley will add visual appeal to the dish.
