Awesome! Let me know what you think!

Awesome! I hope you love them!
they were really good except they were super watery and they didn’t stay in a pattie form. they just flopped around. I even drained a lot of the liquid. I don’t know how you got it to stay together.
I’m sorry to hear that! I have made them a ton and so have many others with success. Even though they are a bit watery the key to is let them cook fully on one side before flipping.
When you heat them in the pan do you use oil or just put them in the pan with no oil?
I would recommend a pan sprayed with non-stick spray
