Ingredients

• Wild boar ground meat - 300 grams
• Almond flour - 30 grams
• Parmesan cheese, grated - 30 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Garlic, minced - 1 clove
• Fresh parsley, chopped - 2 tablespoons
• Dried oregano - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the wild boar ground meat, almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the mixture into two patties, ensuring they are compact and evenly shaped.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 70°C (160°F).
