Big Mac

Ingredients

• 400 g ground beef
• 2 tbs olive oil
• 4 sesame seed burger buns
• ½ onion
• ¼ iceberg lettuce
• 4 American cheese slices
• 2 dill pickles
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tsp white wine vinegar
• 1 pinch black pepper
• 2 tsp yellow mustard
• 1½ tsp onion salt
• 1½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp paprika
• 1 pinch salt

Steps

1. Prepare the Big Mac sauce by combining mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, pepper, mustard, onion salt, garlic powder, and paprika in a bowl. Season with salt and chill.
2. Divide ground beef into 8 equal portions. Season with salt and pepper, then flatten each into thin, 15cm patties.
3. Heat olive oil in a large frypan over high heat. Cook patties in batches for 1-2 minutes per side until charred and cooked through. Keep warm.
4. Slice each burger bun into three layers (top, middle, bottom) and lightly toast them.
5. Assemble the burgers: Spread sauce on the bottom bun. Layer with chopped onion, shredded lettuce, a slice of cheese, a beef patty, and pickle slices.
6. Place the middle bun layer on top, spread with more sauce, then add onion, lettuce, pickles, another beef patty, and more sauce.
7. Finish with the top bun to complete the Big Mac and serve immediately.
