How to cook burgers at home. Recipes step by step with photos in the oven, in a frying pan, on the grill


How to Cook the Perfect Beef Burger

Meat

Meat is a very important ingredient in making a hamburger. The hamburger mince must be ground, but the ideal way to chop it is to cut it with a knife. To prevent the meat from drying out during cooking, it must contain at least 20% fat.

The color of the meat is a good indicator of the amount of fat; the white streaks will tell you how fatty the meat is. Pay attention to this.

After grinding, the meat is pressed to form medallions. For this operation, use slightly moistened hands to prevent the meat from sticking to them. First form balls of the same size, (if you want to make the burgers the same size, you can also use an ice cream scoop) and then lightly press them to flatten them, reaching a thickness of about 2 cm. The operation must be done quickly to prevent heating mixtures and fat melting. The meat should not be pressed too hard: it requires proper mixing so that the burger is both compact and soft.

Once the burgers are formed, they should be seasoned with salt and pepper and left in the refrigerator for 20 minutes until well seasoned.

Bakery

Before cooking the burgers, it's best to keep them at room temperature for at least 10 minutes to ensure the inside isn't too cold.

The burger is cooked on a hot stove (or frying pan) without adding oil, it cooks for about 2 minutes on each side and is flipped only once. Care must be taken not to let the cooking go on for too long, and above all, you should never press it down so as not to lose the juices. It's best to avoid cooking over high heat: this may be too aggressive, in which case the cutlet will quickly cook on the outside and remain completely raw on the inside.

In practice, the smoother and more uniform the cooking, the better the result. The cooking level can also be chosen to suit personal taste: just like with fillet, you can choose to cook it rare (here we mean golden brown on top). However, in our opinion, a good hamburger should be evenly cooked.

These small precautions will ensure that you have a soft burger with the right consistency. When it's almost done, you can optionally place a slice of cheese on top, cover and wait for the cheese to melt slightly.

Bread

This is a very important ingredient. The ideal bread has a soft and compact consistency: it should not crumble, but should absorb dressing well without over-curdling, and it should be easy to bite and chew. Typically for a hamburger, the bread is round, about 12-13 cm in diameter and just over 3 cm in height; it consists of a lower part that is more stable, while the upper part is looser and covered with sesame seeds. Before filling it with meat, it needs to be lightly fried.

This operation is performed only at the last moment, when the meat is almost ready.

Filling

The ideal hamburger sandwich, in addition to meat, also includes lettuce, tomato, cheese and bacon. The salad should be fresh, with leaves of a balanced size compared to the bread.

Salad tomato. It should be firm, not too ripe, and cut horizontally: the best pieces are the center ones. The ideal cheese has a delicate taste and melts well without moistening the meat. Cheddar works great, but you can also use provolone and fontina or anything similar. Mozzarella is not recommended instead.

Bacon enhances the flavor and makes it intriguing, it is cut into not too thin strips and can be cooked separately. True burger artists weave different strips of lard into a checkerboard pattern before cooking it. This way the burger will be evenly coated with bacon.

Additional filling

Onions and gherkins can be added if desired, but there should not be a lot of them. They should be cut into thin circles horizontally. To dull the pungent flavor of onions, you can leave them in the refrigerator before chopping them , and then place them in very cold water after chopping.

Sauces

In theory they shouldn't be added. But if you decide to add them, then the most traditional is ketchup

Secrets of making homemade burgers


To prevent a homemade burger from becoming a disappointment, you must follow certain subtleties of its preparation. Then the result will exceed all expectations, and you will never buy it in restaurants and fast foods again.

  • The classic cutlet is a thin cutlet made from ground beef.
  • Juicy cutlet - meat with fat: rump or sirloin. A juicy and flavorful burger when the cutlet consists of 15-20% fat.
  • You need to turn the meat on the coarsest grinding setting. Then its structure will not be disturbed, which will make the sandwich juicy. The most ideal option is to chop it manually with a sharp knife.
  • The minced meat contains practically no onions, garlic or herbs.
  • You need to form cutlets into thin, perfectly round shapes (you can use a tin can), the size of the bun. But during frying, the minced meat shrinks, so their initial size should be slightly larger than the diameter of the bun.
  • To prevent the minced meat from sticking to your hands, you need to moisten them with cold water.
  • Make a depression in the center of the cutlet so it won't swell in the center and turn into a meatball.
  • Before putting the formed cutlets on the grill, you need to keep them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. They are sent cold to fry.
  • While frying, do not press on the cutlet with a spatula, otherwise the juice will leak out.
  • The average frying time for cutlets is up to 10 minutes, depending on the size. It is cooked in very high heat.
  • The readiness of the cutlet is checked by cutting a sharp knife - the flesh is pink, without blood, medium done.
  • Use any bun that is divided into a bottom and a lid. The perfect bun is a little sweet.
  • Before adding food to the bun, the inside of the bun should be grilled until it is crispy. If you don’t do this, it will absorb all the juices from the cutlet and become soggy, causing the burger to fall apart.
  • The filling must include vegetables and herbs. Classic products: lettuce, onions, fresh or pickled cucumbers.
  • The classic hamburger includes ketchup and mild mustard. Chili and barbecue sauces are often used, and mayonnaise and cheese sauces are less common.
  • Assembling the burger is simple: delicate ingredients away from the hot patty. Ideal option: coat the bun with sauce, place the cutlet and brush it with sauce. After, a slice of cheese, tomato slices, onion half rings, cucumbers, lettuce and a bun lid.
  • The sandwich should be prepared quickly, without interruption, so that the juice does not leak out of the cutlet and vegetables, and the sauce does not turn the bun into crumb. The food should be consumed immediately after assembly and only with your hands.

Fish hamburger - tasty, fast, original

Ingredients for 4 hamburgers 4 small sandwiches For the breaded fish: 4 fresh or frozen cod fillets 1 egg 1 teaspoon paprika 150g corn flakes 1 tablespoon olive oil Herbal sauce: 2 tablespoons yogurt or ricotta 1 tablespoon crème fraîche 1 tablespoon spoon Colman's Mustard® 1 pinch cumin 1 slice cheddar or watercress enamel sprouts

Preparation

Beat the eggs and season with salt, pepper and paprika. Crumble the cornflakes until they resemble breadcrumbs. Dip the fillets first into the egg and then into the grains at least a couple of times to coat them well. Fry in a frying pan with a little oil for 3 minutes on each side. Prepare the sauce by mixing yogurt, cumin, sour cream and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Slice the bread and spread the sauce on both top and bottom. Add fish, 1 slice of cheese and arugula or watercress sprouts.

Proper meat, perfect minced meat

The most important thing in preparing the right burger is the beef patty, which is made according to special rules and only from homemade minced meat. Store-bought minced meat is not suitable for this dish, because you do not know what kind of meat it is made from. It’s good if it’s made from marbled beef, in which 80% is meat and 20% is fat. And if not? Therefore, it is better to buy high-quality beef yourself - for example, let two-thirds of the minced meat be lean meat from the shoulder blade and a third from the fattier abdominal part (flank). The upper part of the hind thigh (rump) and the fleshy part near the three outer ribs (rump) are also suitable for the cutlet. These places contain just the right amount of fat! As a last resort, you can add some pork to lean beef. This, of course, is not a classic, but the proportions will be respected.

Slice the meat along the grain, and then grind it in a meat grinder with a larger attachment. Minced meat should not look like puree, because small grains of meat make it juicy and especially tasty. The less the meat structure is damaged, the better! All you need to do is add salt and black pepper to the minced meat - no more spices or additional products! A cutlet cooked with the addition of soaked buns, eggs, onions and garlic is not a burger. And one more important point - salt the cutlet before frying, and not before, because salt leads to the release of juice and the burger will turn out dry and harsh.
