Recipe Notes
Cooking
Make sure the pan is nice and hot before dolloping in the batter. This will help them to keep their shape.
Milk
Add enough milk to make a ‘dollop-able’ consistency. Not too much or they’ll be runny.
Cooked through
Make sure the burgers are cooked all the way through before serving.
