Steps

1

Prepare Patties

Season the ground beef with salt and pepper to taste, then divide it into 4 equal portions. Form them into patties about 2 cm thick and slightly wider than the buns. Press a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent them from bulging during cooking.

2

Cook and Melt Cheese

Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on your desired doneness. In the last minute, place 2 slices of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover the pan to melt the cheese.

3

Toast Buns

Halve the brioche buns and toast their cut sides in a little butter or a dry pan until golden brown and crispy. This will take about 1-2 minutes.

4

Assemble Burger

Spread both halves of the toasted buns generously with truffle mayonnaise. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, then the cheesy patty, followed by slices of tomato, red onion, and pickles. Cover with the top bun and serve immediately.

Extra Tips

Do not press the patties while cooking, as they will lose their juiciness!

Toast the buns in butter or a dry pan for a crispier texture.

Experiment with other toppings like caramelized onions or sautéed mushrooms for an even richer flavor.
