Preparation

Step 1

1. Put the meat in a large bowl and mix together with your hands.
2. Add a good pinch of kosher salt, the chile flakes, fennel seeds, cayenne, breadcrumbs, and Parmesan.
3. Mix to blend and then form the meat into small 2-inch patties.
4. Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over high heat.
5. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, shut off the heat to avoid splattering, and add the meat patties in a single layer in the pan.
6. Take care they are spread somewhat apart so they have a chance to brown instead of steam.
7. Put the heat back on high and brown them, turning them so they brown all around, 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
8. Touch them to make sure they are still tender and somewhat yielding in the center.
9. Use a slotted spoon or spatula to remove them from the pan. 10. Transfer the patties to a platter or individual plates.
11. Use a kitchen towel to wipe clean the skillet, put the heat on medium, and add the butter.
