Juicy cheddar burger

For the sauce:

3 tbsp mayonnaise 3 tbsp ketchup ½ tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 small dill pickle, finely chopped ½ garlic clove, finely grated

For the patties:

400 g ground beef (25-30% fat for juicy burgers) 10 g olive oil 50 g cheddar cheese, sliced Salt Black pepper

For assembling the burgers:

2 burger buns 1 tbsp butter 4 tomato slices 20 g pickles 20 g red onion

Prepare the sauce: In a bowl, mix all sauce ingredients and set aside.

Shape the patties: Divide the ground beef into two portions (200g each) and shape into round patties about 2 cm thick.

Cook the patties: Heat a pan over high heat, add olive oil, and cook the patties until browned on both sides. Season with salt and pepper (about 8-10 minutes, depending on your preferred doneness). While still hot, top with cheddar cheese slices.

Toast the buns in a pan with butter. Spread the homemade sauce on the bottom bun, then layer with tomato slices, red onion, the cheddar-topped patty, and pickles. Spread more sauce on the top bun and place it over the burger. Serve immediately!
