Burger Ingredients

French Fry Ingredients

Method

Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly. Layer the lettuce, tomato (sliced), onion (sliced), and cooked patties on the bottom half of the bun. Add ketchup and mustard to taste, and top with the other half of the bun.

French Fry Directions

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.

  4. 8

    Drain and Season

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
