  - 1/4 cup diced onions

  - 1 clove garlic, minced

  - Salt and pepper to taste

2- Divide the beef mixture into equal portions and shape them into hamburger patties.

3- Heat some cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the hamburger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
