Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 kg ground beef , 20% fat
  • 4 cloves garlic , finely chopped
  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup bread crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 slices cheddar cheese
  • 8 hamburger buns
  • lettuce
  • ¼ cup guacamole , store-bought

Instructions

  • Mix the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg and all the seasonings in a large bowl until combined, and form the mixture into burger patties.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan on medium heat, and fry the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  • When you flip the burger to the other side, put a slice of cheese on the patty and let it melt while the patty is cooking.
  • Cut the buns open and add lettuce, a burger patty topped with cheese and, finally, a teaspoon of guacamole.

Notes

I use ground beef with (80% lean, 20% fat). The fat in the meat creates that juicy texture that you want your burger to have.
