Instructions
- Finely slice the yellow onion and the red onion, then chop the parsley.
- In a bowl, mix the minced beef, yellow onion, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and paprika. Mix just enough to combine.
- Shape 4 thick patties about 1.5 cm thick, slightly wider than the buns, and press a small dip into the centre.
- Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat and cook the patties for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
- Place a slice of cheddar on each patty during the last minute of cooking so it melts.
- Lightly toast the insides of the buns in the pan or in the toaster.
- Fill each bun with salad, a cheese patty, sliced red onion and gherkins, then add the mustard, ketchup and mayonnaise.
- Close up and serve straight away, with chips on the side.
Variations and tips
Bacon version. Add a slice of grilled bacon on each patty before the cheese.
Using what's easy to find. Hot-dog buns can be replaced with small brioche rolls or burger buns.
