Alesya Ustinova, food blogger and author of cookbooks, offers a diet hamburger: tomatoes instead of bread!

Ingredients

• 300 g mixed minced meat
• 6 small tomatoes
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1 small onion
• 2 tbsp. l. refined vegetable oil
• freshly ground black pepper
• salt

Directions

1. Peel, chop and chop the onion and garlic in a meat grinder or blender. Put the minced meat in a wide bowl, add the onion and garlic, season with salt, pepper and mix well, and then beat off. Divide into 6 parts and form round patties 4-5 cm in diameter.
2. Heat oil in a skillet and fry patties over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side to brown. Transfer to a plate.
3. Preheat the oven to 200 ° C.
4. Wash the tomatoes and dry well. Cut each across. Put a cutlet on the lower part, cover with the upper part and fasten each tomato with a toothpick, sticking it into the center of the "hamburger".
5. Place the tomatoes in a greased non-stick baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
6. Gently transfer the finished hamburgers to a dish, remove the toothpicks, serve warm.
