Burger Ingredients

Fries Ingredients

Method

Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently to incorporate seasonings without overworking the meat.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the seasoned meat into 2 equal portions and shape each into a patty approximately ¾ inch thick.

  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.

  4. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

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

Fries Directions

  1. 6

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips to make fries. Rinse the fries in cold water to remove excess starch.

  2. 7

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  3. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the cut potatoes to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 5-7 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 9

    Season the Fries

    Sprinkle the fries with salt immediately after removing them from the oil while still hot.
