Hamburgers And Fries Recipe

Hamburgers

1. 1

   Prepare the beef mixture

   In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well with your hands until the spices are evenly distributed.

2. 2

   Form the patties

   Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, making a slight indentation in the center with your thumb to prevent puffing up while cooking.

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. Add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

4. 4

   Prepare the buns

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

5. 5

   Assemble the burgers

   On the bottom half of each toasted bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard. Top with the other half of the bun.
