Method

Burger Patty Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty Mix

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help it cook evenly.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, adding a slice of cheddar cheese on top during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Burger Assembly

  1. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Slice the burger buns in half and lightly toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a slice of tomato, and then the cooked patty with melted cheese. Add pickles, ketchup, and mustard to taste. Top with the other half of the bun.

Fries Preparation

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into thin strips to resemble fries.

  2. 7

    Season the Fries

    In a large bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil, salt, and paprika until evenly coated.

  3. 8

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the seasoned fries onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
