Burger and Fries

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into two patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a 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

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to let it melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on the skillet or grill.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of the bun, layer lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mayonnaise. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Fries

    Peel and cut the potatoes into fries. Rinse them in cold water and then pat dry.

  7. 7

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve the hamburger with fries on the side and a can of soda.
