Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground beef
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 4 Burger buns
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 4 Eggs
• 4 slices Sliced cheese
• 8 Lettuce leaves
• 1 Tomato
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until just mixed. Do not overwork the meat.

Step 2

Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal parts and gently form each part into a patty, making a slight indentation in the center to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and allow it to heat until shimmering.

Step 4

Place the burger patties in the skillet, indentation side up. Cook for about 4 minutes on one side, then flip.

Step 5

Place a slice of cheese on each patty and continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 6

Remove the patties from the skillet and toast the burger buns in the same pan using 2 tablespoons of butter until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

In a separate non-stick pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set and yolks are slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 8

Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

Step 9

To assemble the burger, spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, a cheese-topped burger patty, and a fried egg on top.

Step 10

Finish with another lettuce leaf, then cover with the top half of the bun. Serve immediately.
