Cheese Burger Recipe
Made with Superbread Burger Bun
Description:
A cheeseburger is a hamburger topped with cheese. Traditionally, the slices of cheese is placed on top of the meat patty. The cheese is usually added to the cooking hamburger patty shortly before serving, which allows the cheese to melt. Cheeseburgers can include variations in structure, ingredients and composition. As with other hamburgers, a cheeseburger may include toppings such as lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, bacon, mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 brioche burger buns, halved
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 600g minced beef (15% fat)
- 4 cheese slices
- 10 sliced pickles, cut into pieces (we like Dino’s Famous Chilli Stacker Pickles)
Sauce:
- 2 echelon shallot, very finely chopped
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp tomato ketchup
- 2 tbsp liquid from the pickle jar
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- a pinch garlic powder
- a pinch onion powder
- a pinch sweet smoked paprika
Instruction
- STEP 1- To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a bowl with a little seasoning.
- STEP 2- Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a mediums heat and brush the cut sides of the buns liberally with melted butter. Toast in the hot pan until really golden and toasted.
- STEP 3- Turn the heat to high. When the pan is really hot, season the mince and form into four balls, then push two into the frying pan, squashing to flatten. Sprinkle over some salt again and cook for 2 minutes until really crisp, then flip, sprinkle over some salt and repeat. Lay a sheet of cheese onto each and cover with a lid for 30 seconds until melted. Move onto a plate and repeat with the remaining patties and cheese slices.
- STEP 4- Spread some of the sauce onto the bases of the buns, then top with the cheese patties. Top with lots of pickles, then spread the tops liberally with the sauce and put on top to serve.
