Do Hamburgers actually come from Hamburg?
And Frankfurters from Frankfurt?
And French Fries from France?
And why are Hamburgers called Hamburgers when they are made of beef?
Anyway… these are made with pork and NOT sandwiched between bread… So I suppose they’re not Hamburgers after all..

- Set aside and keep warm
- Dry off the courgette slices, brush with garlic oil, and fry in a griddle for ca. 4 minutes each side
