About this saved recipe
Ingredients
- 8 4/5 oz ground beef
- to taste salt
- to taste black pepper
- 2 tbsp peri peri sauce
- 4 pcs burger buns
- 4 pcs lettuce leaves
- 4 slices tomato slices
- 1 pcs red onion
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
Instructions
- 1Place the ground beef in a large mixing bowl.
- 2Add salt, black pepper, and peri peri sauce to the meat; gently mix with your hands or a spoon until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
- 3Divide the seasoned meat into four equal portions (about 62 g each) and shape each portion into a round patty about 1 cm thick.
- 4Cover the patties with plastic wrap and let them rest for 5 minutes while you preheat the cooking surface.
- 5Preheat a grill, grill pan, or heavy skillet over medium‑high heat (approximately 392°F / 400°F). Lightly oil the surface if using a skillet.
- 6Place the patties on the hot surface and cook for 4–5 minutes on the first side, resisting the urge to press them down.
- 7Flip the patties and cook another 4–5 minutes, or until they reach your desired doneness (internal temperature 160°F / 160°F for well‑done).
- 8During the last minute of cooking, lay a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the pan or close the grill lid to melt the cheese.
- 9While the patties finish cooking, split the burger buns and toast them cut‑side down on the grill or in a toaster for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden.
- 10Assemble each burger: place a toasted bun bottom, add a lettuce leaf, a cooked patty with melted cheese, a tomato slice, and a few rings of red onion.
- 11Top with the bun lid, press gently, and serve immediately with your favorite side such as fries or a simple salad.
- 12Enjoy the spicy, juicy Peri Peri Burger while hot!
