Burger Ingredients

Waffle Fries Ingredients

Method

Burger Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty.

  3. 3

    Grill the Patties

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buns

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

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burgers

    Spread ketchup and mustard on the bottom bun, add the lettuce, place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, add tomato slices, pickles, and cover with the top bun.

Waffle Fries Directions

  1. 6

    Prepare the Waffle Fries

    Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the package of waffle fries.

  2. 7

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the frozen waffle fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with vegetable oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake according to package instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
