hamburger recipe.Sure! Here's a simple recipe for making classic hamburgers: ### Ingredients: - 1 pound (450g) ground beef (around 80/20 lean to fat ratio for juiciness) - Salt and pepper to taste - 4 hamburger buns - Optional toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, pickles, condiments like ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc.) ### Instructions: 1. **Preheat your grill or skillet**: If using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat. If using a skillet, heat it over medium-high heat on the stove. 2. **Form the patties**: Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch (2 cm) thick. Make sure not to overwork the meat, as this can make the burgers tough. 3. **Season the patties**: Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper, or your preferred seasoning blend. 4. **Cook the patties**: Place the patties on the grill or skillet. If using a grill, cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness, or adjust the time based on your preference. If using a skillet, cook for about the same amount of time, flipping halfway through. 5. **Toast the buns**: While the patties are cooking, you can toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in the skillet for a minute or two until they're lightly toasted.
