Add olive oil to a frying pan and heat until hot.When all your burger patties are formed on the baking tray place the baking tray into the freezer for 30 minutes so the burgers can firm up.Or you can form them into burgers by patting them down into a round cutter to make a flat burger patty shape. You can do this by rolling the patty into a ball and then flattening it by placing a square of parchment paper over the top and pressing down with the base of a glass.Add more flour if needed to the outside of the patties for easier handling and then form them into burger patties. Flour a baking tray and then divide the batter into four equal sections.If the mix still seems very wet when you touch it, then add in a little more flour.
