Pub Patties Burgers With Horseradish Sauce And Cress

---

Entered for safekeeping, from every day with rachael ray, june/july 2009. if only the wimpy burger i tried long ago had been anything like this! this is very british with horseradish, worcestershire sauce, and watercress (although the british prefer cress sprouts, which are tinier and have excellent flavor, but in the u.s. You'd be lucky to find watercress). personally, i love the bite of horseradish with my beef.
