Burger Ingredients

Fries Ingredients

Method

Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 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 one side, then flip them.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Immediately place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty after flipping. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked to your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese. Add slices of tomato, ketchup, and mustard before topping with the other half of the bun.

Fries Directions

  1. 6

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, resembling fries.

  3. 8

    Season the Fries

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

  4. 9

    Bake the Fries

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