Preparación

1. 1

   Make the optional burger sauce by mixing the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.

2. 2

   Preheat your pan or skillet to medium-high heat.

3. 3

   In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and salt. Gently mix them together until well incorporated, being careful not to overwork the meat.

4. 4

   Divide the ground beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into round patties, ensuring they are slightly larger than the size of the burger buns, as they will shrink slightly during cooking.

5. 5

   Add the butter to the preheated skillet. Add the burger patties and cook for approximately 3-4 minutes on one side and flip

6. 6

   Add the cheese if using, place a lid on the pan and cook for a further 1-2 minutes until the cheese has melted.

7. 7

   Remove the burgers from the pan and leave to rest on a wooden board for 5 minutes.

8. 8

   Place the burger buns in face down and toast for 1-2 minutes until the bottoms are light brown and crisp. Remove and set aside.

9. 9

   Assemble the burgers. Spreading the sauce on the bottom of each bun, add a cooked burger patty followed by other toppings including lettuce, pickles and tomato and serve immediately.
