Step 1

Season 500g of minced beef with salt and pepper. Divide it into 8 equal portions, shaping each into meatball-like shapes.

Step 2

To prepare your toppings, shred the lettuce, and slice the tomato and red onion to your liking.

Step 3

Preheat your pan over a medium to high heat. Then pour half a tablespoon of your preferred cooking oil to grease it.

Step 4

Place the meatballs onto a hard surface like a chopping board. Then, press firmly on a plate or your preferred tool to create thin patties. Place a single patty in the pan, or add two to create a double patty burger. Cook one side of your patties for about 2 minutes. Before flipping them over, add a knob of butter to the center of the uncooked side to make the patties juicier. Then, flip them over and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 5

To transform your plain patties into cheeseburgers, place a slice of cheese on each patty 15 seconds before removing them from the pan.

Step 6

Open the burger buns and gently toast them in the pan.

Step 7

To assemble your Smash Burgers, spread some mayonnaise and ketchup on your toasted buns. Add a slice of lettuce, a cooked patty or two, a slice of tomato, a slice of onion, and then crown it with the top of the burger bun. Enjoy!
