BRUNCH

Method

BRUNCH

  1. 1

    Crispy Potatoes Prep

    Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Cut russet potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. In a large bowl, toss with olive oil, paprika, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon pepper.

  2. 2

    Roast Potatoes

    Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, turning once, until edges are golden and crisp.

  3. 3

    Season and form beef patties

    Place grass-fed ground beef in a bowl. Sprinkle with 0.5 teaspoon salt and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper; divide into two equal patties and gently form to avoid overworking the meat.

  4. 4

    Sear patties and melt cheese

    Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat with a thin coat of olive oil. Cook patties 3-4 minutes per side for medium, flipping once. In the last minute, lay white cheddar slices over the patties to melt.

  5. 5

    Toast buns

    Melt the butter in the skillet and lightly toast the cut sides of the potato buns until golden.

  6. 6

    Assemble burgers

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom buns. Add a generous handful of arugula, then tomato slices. Place the cheese-melted patty on top and finish with a dollop of Dijon mustard and a drizzle of ketchup on the top bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Plate the burgers with a generous side of crispy potatoes and garnish with extra arugula.
