Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information.

If you have onion thinly, to serve, garlic cloves, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes roughly 45 minutes. All things considered, we decided this recipe deserves a spoonacular score of 53%. This score is pretty good. Similar recipes include All American Burger, The All American Classic Bacon Cheese Burger, and Classic All-American Burger with Fried Sweet Pickles.

Merlot, Malbec, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Burger. Merlot will be perfectly adequate for a classic burger with standard toppings. Bolder toppings call for bolder wines, such as a malbec or peppery zinfandel. You could try Edna Valley Vineyard Merlot. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 13 dollars per bottle.

Edna Valley Vineyard Merlot

Edna Valley Vineyard 2010 Merlot opens with aromas of cocoa powder, anise and black cherry, complemented by hints of leather and humidor. Fine tannins and a bright acidity create a rich, balanced mouthfeel.

Instructions

Place the meat, egg, garlic shallot, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix through with your hands. Do this until everything is as even as possible - you wouldn't want to get a mouthful of onion or garlic! Divide the burger mix into 4 equal parts. Form each burger by rolling it into a ball in your hands and flatten a little, but keep them nice and thick. Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed pan, when hot, place the burgers in the pan. The heat should be medium/hot. The cooking time will depend on how thick you make your burger and how you like them cooked. I find that my burgers take about 4 to 6 minutes on each side for a burger that is about 3cm thick (just over an inch) for a medium result. When the burgers are cooked, lift them out of the pan and set aside. Take your burger buns and place them face down in the pan, toast them in the burger flavour for a minute or two on each side. To serve, place the little gem leaves on your bread, then the tomato, the burgers on top, lay over a couple of slices of pickle and some sliced raw onion on top.
