Cheeseburger

 

Chuck steak, minced  750 g Onion, chopped 1 Garlic, crushed 1 clove Fresh thyme 1 tsp Cheddar cheese, sliced 120 g Olive oil 40 g Salt, ground black pepper to taste

Put the beef, garlic, thyme and some salt and pepper in the bowl and work together with your hands until evenly mixed and slightly sticky. Divide into 4 portions and shape into patties. Cover and chill for 30 min.

Brush the patties lightly with olive oil and barbecue or grill for 5 minutes on each side until lightly charred and cooked through. Top the patties with the cheese slices set under a hot grill for 30 seconds until the cheese has melted. Keep them warm.

Toast the buns, then spread each base and top with mayonnaise. Add the lettuce leaves, cheese-topped patties and tomato and onion sliced. Add the bun tops and serve hot.
