  • 1/2 onion, chopped (75 g)
• Step 2
  Put mixed ground meat, the chopped onion, and the other patty ingredients in a frying pan and knead thoroughly with a rubber spatula until sticky.

  Divide the mixture into two parts, shape into oval patties while removing air, and arrange in the frying pan. Sear both sides over medium heat, and once browned, place on aluminum foil.

  Wipe excess oil from the frying pan, add the sauce ingredients, and mix well until the potato starch lumps disappear. Heat until boiling, then simmer over medium heat for 1-2 minutes while stirring until thickened.
