INSTRUCTIONS (how to make this recipe):
Instructions for burgers
- Mix the ground beef with the egg, breadcrumbs, mustard, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic, and onion in a bowl. Mix well.
- Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties (Make them slightly larger than the bun, as they shrink when cooked.).
- Let the patties rest in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes so they firm up (in the meantime, you can make the sauce).
- Heat a pan with oil or butter over medium heat and cook the patties for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Sauce Instructions
- Mix all ingredients well in a small bowl. Taste and add extra salt, pepper, or honey as needed for the perfect balance.
- Let the sauce sit in the fridge for 10 minutes so the flavors can meld together (in the meantime, you can fry the burgers)
Serving
- Serve the burgers on a bun with toppings such as lettuce, tomato, cheese, pickles, and the sauce. Enjoy!
