Ingredients
Preparation
Carefully shape the ground beef (150 g) into an even patty that is slightly larger than the brioche bun (1) to ensure a perfect fit.
Fry the bacon (2) in a pan without additional fat until crispy and remove from the pan.
Heat the olive oil (1 tbsp) in the pan and sear the ground beef (150 g) on both sides until browned.
Shortly before the end of the cooking time, place the cheddar slice (1) on the meat so it melts gently – oh, the aroma!
Halve the brioche bun (1) and toast the cut surfaces briefly in the pan until golden brown.
Cut the pickle (1) and the tomato (1) into thin slices.
Assemble by placing the lettuce leaf (1) on the bottom half of the brioche bun (1), followed by the patty with the melted cheddar slice (1), the crispy bacon strips (2), the pickle (1), and the tomato (1).
