Now add the rest of the steak, the chives, paprika, the beaten egg and the chopped onion. Purée until smooth.
Using wet hands, shape the mixture into a burger.
Fry the burger in a hot frying pan with the vegetable oil for 5-6 minutes on each side, until cooked.
To make the sauce, mix all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl.
Finally, make the Brussels sprout purée by boiling the sprouts in the waterfor 8-10 minutes, or until tender.
Drain, place into a food processor with the cream, and blend until smooth. Fold in the butter, to taste.
