Quarter Pounder
Cuisines
Cooking Instructions
Cooking: 8 minutes
Notes:
Roll the seasoned beef into balls, place between greaseproof paper, and flatten with a rolling pin to form thin, uniform quarter-pounder patties.
Chill the shaped beef patties in the refrigerator briefly before cooking to help them maintain their shape.
Toast the sesame seed buns cut-side up under a grill until golden brown and warm.
Layer the bottom bun with star patterns of tomato ketchup and American mustard, followed by finely sliced onions, dill pickles, cooked beef patties, and slices of cheddar cheese turned at alternating angles.
Season and Shape Beef
Mix ground beef with salt and pepper, divide into portions, roll into balls, place between greaseproof paper sheets, and roll flat into round patties.
Chill Patties
Transfer the shaped beef patties to the refrigerator to rest while preparing the other ingredients.
Toast Buns
Cut the sesame seed buns in half and toast them under a grill until lightly golden brown.
Cook Patties
Heat a little vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat, add the beef patties, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Assemble and Serve
Layer the toasted bottom bun with ketchup, mustard, thinly sliced onions, and pickles, top with cooked beef patties and alternating cheese slices, crown with the top bun, and serve.
