Hidden Cheeseburger Recipes

BEST CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Put the meat and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl and season with black pepper and 1 generous tsp salt. Mix together well, then shape the meat into 4 thin, flat burgers. Chill until needed. Can be made a day ahead. Combine the chipotle paste, ketchup and mayonnaise in a bowl to make a sauce.
• Heat a gas or charcoal barbecue to high (or you can use a griddle pan on the hob). Cook the burgers over direct heat for 2 mins each side or until grill marks appear. Top each with 2 slices of cheese and cook for another 30 secs or until melted, then remove from the heat. Toast the buns for a few seconds on the cut-side.
• Spread a little of the spicy sauce on the base of each bun and top with lettuce, tomato, a burger patty, onion and pickles. Top with the bun lid and devour immediately.

HIDDEN CHEESEBURGER

Steps:

• Set aside the sliced cheese and bread dough. Mix all other ingredients and form 4 hamburger patties. Fry them in olive oil until done to your likeness.
• Divide the bread dough into 4 equal parts. On floured surface, roll each part into a rectangle. Put one slice of cheese on the end of each rectangle. Put a hamburger on top of cheese and then another slice of cheese. Fold the bread over the top and fold under the burger. Then draw the dough up from the bottom over the top of the burger and seal it well. Put them seam side down on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Brush them each with butter and let them raise in a warm area for 20 minutes.
• Bake in the oven for 20 minutes at 425°F or until the bread has browned well.
