Ingredients
:
For the Burger:
1 lb ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat)
4 sesame seed burger buns
4 slices cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
(for grilling)
Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions
For the Fries:

2 tbsp olive oil

For the Burger Sauce:
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
:
Prepare the Fries:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into thin strips (fries).
Toss the fries in olive oil, salt, and pepper, ensuring they’re evenly coated.
Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Cook the Burger Patties:
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and brush with olive oil.
Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and form them into patties, slightly larger than your buns.
Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper.
Grill the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
During the last minute of grilling, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to melt the cheese.
Prepare the Burger Sauce:
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Assemble the Burger:
Toast the sesame seed buns lightly in a skillet or on the grill until golden brown.
Spread a generous amount of the burger sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
Place the first beef patty on top, followed by a slice of cheese.
Add the second beef patty on top and top with more sauce.
Add your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, pickles, or onions, if desired.
Close the sandwich with the top bun.
Serve:
Plate the loaded burger with a side of crispy fries and enjoy!
