Juicy Cheese-Topped Hamburg Steak
This recipe is simple, and so good that it turns up on our table about once every two weeks.
It goes well with rice, and with a drink, wine especially. Our favourite way to eat it is to plate it up and pour a little ponzu (citrus-soy sauce) over the top. Excellent.
Just picturing it brings the flavour back.
