How to Make CHINESE HAMBURGERS
- In a 10-in. skillet over medium heat, in hot cooking oil, cook onions 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add soy sauce, sugar and 1-1/2 cups water; heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 15 minutes or until onions are tender.
- Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix beef, salt and pepper; shape into 4 patties. Cook patties as you would normally, in broiler or in skillet.
