Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef

- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon allspice
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 50 grams breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons (for frying) olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped parsley.
Add the ground cumin, coriander, paprika, allspice, black pepper, and salt to the mixture. Use your hands or a spatula to mix well until the spices are evenly distributed.
Incorporate the breadcrumbs and egg into the mixture, ensuring everything binds together properly.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1.5 cm thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Fry the patties in the skillet for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the outside is golden brown and the inside is fully cooked.
Remove the patties from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the Debs warm with your choice of sides, such as pita bread, tahini sauce, or a fresh vegetable salad.
