Serves 4 people

Coarsely minced beef neck 1¾ lbs.
Egg yolks 4
Goat cheese ½ lb.
Pear compote ¾ lb.
Fresh coriander sprig
Caster sugar 1 tablespoon
Hamburger buns 4
Pickled cucumber ¼ lb.
Medium-size tomato 2
Mayonnaise 4 tablespoons
Lettuce 4 firm leaves
Small onion 1
Butter 2 oz.
Salt, white pepper to taste

Procedure
Put the cooled beef into a bowl, add salt, yolks and carefully combine. From the meat prepared in this way, make 4 balls and form them into hamburger patties, place them on a plate and put in the refrigerator to cool.
Put the butter into a small saucepan, heat it up, add finely diced compote pears, sugar and caramelize this on medium heat. Put this into a blender, add fresh coriander without stems and blend. Season with salt and white pepper.
Grill the meat on a hot pan or grill for 4 minutes on each side. The grilling time depends on the degree of doneness.
Cut the hamburger bun in half horizontally and toast these halves on a hot dry pan. Spread good quality mayonnaise onto the bottom of the bun, then put on the grilled meat with goat cheese. Now apply the pear compote sauce and put on the top of the bun.
Cut the tomatoes, pickled cucumbers and peeled onion into very thin slices. Place a lettuce leaf on to the plate and garnish with the sliced vegetables.

Cooking techniques
- If you like a spicy sauce flavor, add a hot pepper.
- Don’t be afraid to grill the hamburger to a bloody or medium doneness.
- You may substitute the goat cheese with quality Swiss or cheddar cheese.
- You may substitute the pear compote sauce with a sauce made of dried plums, etc.
- Lettuce can be substituted with arugula.
- Do not put egg whites into the hamburger, because this would make it rubbery and tough.
- You may add a few drops of fresh lime juice to the meat. It accentuates the beef flavor.
