Frita Burger
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups dried bread crumbs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1.5 Kgs lean ground beef
- 1 large yellow onion, grated on the large-hole side of a box grater
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from about 1 lime)
- 3 tablespoons ketchup, plus extra for serving
- 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon paprika
- freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 18 mini burger buns
Instructions
- Place the bread crumbs in a large bowl. Cover with the milk and soak for 2 minutes. Add the ground beef, onion, beaten egg, lime juice, ketchup, garlic, salt, paprika, and a pinch of pepper and work the ingredients together with your hands or a wooden spoon just until combined. Form the mixture into 18 small patties and refrigerate for a while.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add about half of the burgers and brown them on each side around five minutes. Keep warm while you cook the remaining burgers.
- Set the fritas on the buns. Top each burger with generous amounts of mayonaise, cheddar cheese, and guacamole and shoestring French fries or potato chips, then add the bun tops and serve.
