Method

Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patties

    In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and form into two patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Add cheese slices on top of the patties during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half, layer lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.

Fries Directions

  1. 4

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to resemble fries.

  2. 5

    Season the Fries

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

  3. 6

    Bake the Fries

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the fries on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
