Homemade Burger Recipe

Ingredients:

• 500g (1 lb) ground beef (preferably 80% lean)

• 1 small onion, finely chopped

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 4 burger buns

• Cheese slices (optional)

• Lettuce, tomato, and pickles for topping

• Ketchup and mustard (optional)

Butter for toasting the buns Instructions:

1. Prepare the Patties:

   • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until everything is well incorporated.

   • Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Press the center slightly to avoid puffing up during cooking.
     

2. Cook the Patties:

   • Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.

   • Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side (or until they reach your desired doneness). If you want cheese on your burger, add a slice of cheese on top of the patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.
     

3. Toast the Buns:

   • While the burgers cook, cut the buns in half and lightly butter the cut sides.

   • Toast them in a separate pan or under the grill until golden and crispy.
     

4. Assemble the Burger:

   • Place the cooked patty on the bottom half of the bun. Add lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and any other toppings you like.

   • Top with ketchup and mustard if desired, then cover with the top half of the bun.
     

5. Serve and Enjoy!

   • Serve your delicious homemade burgers with fries chips, or a side salad.

Enjoy your homemade burger!
