3. Remove from the pan and add half a cup of flour, and two medium sized eggs. Mix thoroughly.

4. AT THIS POINT, SEPARATE A PORTION OF THE BATTER FOR YOUR BABY/TODDLER SO THEIR PORTION WILL GO UNSALTED.

5. You may now season it for adult consumption — you can add salt and pepper, and if you have powdered hamburger steak seasoning, you can o and add a pinch too.

6. You may now fry the patties individually. Just make sure you will remember which ones are unseasoned, and which ones are for adult consumption.

7. Serve with ketchup either with hamburger buns or rice. This also keeps well in the freezer. Just cook the patties, cool them and keep in an airtight container. It will be good for up to a month, so freezer meal and working mamas, you may want to give this a try.
