Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the broiler to high.
- Step 2
Put the beef in a mixing bowl and set aside.
- Step 3
Heat the butter in a saucepan and add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted. Let cool.
- Step 4
Add onion mixture to the beef. Add salt and pepper, and blend well with the fingers.
- Step 5
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties, each about an inch thick.
- Step 6
Cut away and discard the core of the tomato. Cut into 4 slices, each about the same size. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. For each tomato slice, cut one anchovy fillet in half crosswise and arrange the halves on the slice in a cross. Brush with a little oil from the anchovy can.
- Step 7
Arrange patties on a grill for broiling.
- Step 8
Place the rack under the broiler with top of patties about 4 inches from the heat source. Broil 2 to 3 minutes, then turn patties. Place under broiler once more, leaving the broiler door open. Let broil 2 to 3 minutes. Top each patty with a slice of mozzarella. Center one anchovy-topped tomato slice on each patty. Place under broiler and let broil 2 minutes longer with door closed.
