I know I shouldn't have but...

.... sometimes the bargain shelf in the co-op mesmerises me.

Basically I've got four frozen Aberdeen Angus beefburgers, bought in the summer and frozen, I doubt I will use them now. So what I thought was, if I let them defrost and then perhaps make them into something like meatballs do you think that would work. I have some frozen flaky pastry that needs using as well could I make a pie filling. Or any other suggestions would be gratefully received.
Woofles you need to get out of that house. You are going insane:eek: - colinw

apologises for spelling mistakes - google toolbar and I have had a hissy fit and I've lost me spell checker.

    Meatballs is a great idea, they are good quality burgers so should be meaty enough. If you find they don't stick abck together well try crumbling a weetabix into the mix, my MIL swears by this.

    My friend's mother used to make a tangy tomato/onion type sauce (like a pasta sauce) to pour over part cooked burgers, it would go into the oven for a bit, be topped with cheese & called 'Vienna steaks' - great served with mashed potato.

    You could also break them up, fry with onions & veg to make a curry or alternatively, fry with onions, carrots and other veg, add some nicely flavoured gravy in a dish, cover with mashed potatos and turn into a Cottage Pie.
