Steak-Like Hamburger

Roughly chop the onion and garlic.

Coarsely chop the beef with a knife.

Mix the chopped onion, garlic, and beef together by chopping them into one mass.

Season with salt and black pepper.

Once the meat holds together, shape into a patty and press a dimple into the center.

Heat a frying pan over medium and add 2 tbsp olive oil.

Place the patty in the pan, lower to low heat, cover, and cook for about 5 minutes.

Once the edges turn brown, flip the patty and add 30g of butter, basting it in the French 'arroser' technique.

Repeat baste-and-cover steam-roast cycles 2–3 times (15 minutes total from the start).

Turn off the heat and let it finish on residual heat for a moist result.

Plate, drizzle the pan juices over the top, and garnish with watercress.
