Kid’s Burger Recipe

Directions for Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Fries

   Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into thin strips and place them in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.

2. 2

   Bake the Fries

   Spread the potato strips onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.

3. 3

   Make the Burger Patties

   While the fries are baking, divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

4. 4

   Cook the Burger Patties

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

5. 5

   Add Cheese

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

6. 6

   Assemble the Burger

   Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the burger patty with melted cheese, slices of tomato, and ketchup. Top with the other half of the bun.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve the burgers hot with a side of crispy fries.
