Cheese stuffed meat patties with brown butter tomato sauce

Ingredients

500g mince- I have used beef

2 tbsp fresh herbs, I have used tarragon, thyme and oregano

4 x 2cm square cheese such as mozzarella, feta, gruyere etc….

Salt and pepper

Sauce

400ml tomato passata

50g butter

1 tbsp mixed dried herbs, I ran out of fresh so had to use dried, but you can use fresh just use more

Method

Mix your mince with salt, pepper and your fresh herbs, knead until sticky then form 4 patties and push your cheese in and make sure the mince is surrounding your cheese. Fry off your patties for 5 or so minutes on each side, when done take out and set aside. In the same pan put your butter, melt and cook until it browns and smells yummy and then add your mixed dried herbs, stir and then add your passata, season with salt. Heat the sauce and be sure to scrape the bottom to get all the yummy bits. If you have cream you can add a splash of it. Serve with spaghetti or other pasta, rice or just some steamed veg.
