Zucchini Pancakes with Burger Steak Recipe

Make the pancakes: Place all ingredients except for the oil in a bowl and mix. Form into 4 patties and set aside

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a nonstick pan. Over medium heat, fry the pancakes until golden on each side, making sure that the potatoes are cooked through. This will take around 5 to 7 minutes per pancake. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Make the burger steaks: Season the ground beef with salt and pepper (fry a small piece to test seasoning). Form into 4 patties.

On a grill pan over high heat, sear the patties and cover, cooking each side for 2 to 3 minutes for medium doneness. Set aside cooked patties and pour drippings into a small bowl.

Make the gravy: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine drippings with flour to make a roux. Cook roux until pale brown and slowly add stock. Mix until all of the stock is incorporated, then whisk in cream. Adjust seasoning if needed, then strain with a sieve.

Serve burger steaks with the zucchini pancakes, gravy, and steamed vegetables. Garnish with fried whole shallots, if desired.
