Ingredients:
18 oz (about 2 1/2 cups) ground beef |
2 teaspoons tomato ketchup |
1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce |
4 scallions, finely chopped |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
4 oz cheddar cheese, cut into 8 small pieces |
flour for dusting |
vegetable oil for brushing |
8 small part-baked bread rolls |
tomato salsa for serving |
8 romaine lettuce leaves |
Directions:
1. Mix together the beef, sauces, scallions, and egg in a large bowl. With damp hands, divide the mixture into 8 balls, then shape into flat patties. 2. Insert a piece of cheese in the center of each patty. Wrap the meat around the cheese and shape into a burger. Place on a lightly floured plate and chill for 30 minutes. 3. Brush the burgers with oil and cook on a cast-iron grill-pan or under a hot broiler for 5-8 minutes on each side. 4. Meanwhile, bake the rolls according to the manufacturer's instructions. Split them in half and top the bottoms with the cooked burgers, tomato salsa, and a lettuce leaf. 5. If you are cooking on a barbecue, place the burgers on a lightly oiled barbecue grill over medium heat, so they do not burn on the outside before being cooked through. Cook for 5-8 minutes on each side. |
