crispy, tasty, simple

Mince the meat in a meat grinder and mix with the egg, cornstarch or breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, and the juice of half a lemon. Add salt and pepper. Let the meat mixture rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Shape the meat mixture into 4 balls and press them into equal-sized patties using a patty press. If you don’t have a press, simply form even patties by hand. Place breadcrumbs on a plate and then roll the patties in the breadcrumbs. Fry the patties in a hot pan until golden brown on each side. Once one side is golden brown, place a slice of cheese on each side so that it melts slightly. Check the patties frequently to make sure they don’t turn black. While the patties are cooking, cut open the hamburger buns and toast the undersides of the buns in a second pan. If you like, you can butter the undersides and dust them lightly with sugar (for a caramel flavor). Mix the honey and mustard together until smooth. To serve: Spread the sauce on the bottom of the burger bun and place one or two lettuce leaves on top. Then place the patty on top and top with cucumber and tomatoes. Add a little more sauce and place the other half of the bun on top. There’s a video tutorial for this recipe on YouTube; you can find the link to my channel/blog, etc., in my profile.
