Tips for frying the perfect burger:
To fry the perfect burger, there are a few tips you should keep in mind:
- Use a pan or grill large enough to cook all of the patties at once.
- Uses good quality meat with a high fat content of at least 20%. This makes the burger juicy and flavorful.
- Don't shape the patties too tightly, just gently squeeze them to keep them moist.
- Season the meat generously with salt and pepper before shaping the patties.
- Avoid turning the meat too often, as this can cause it to lose its juices and become dry.
- Don't press down on the meat with a spatula, as this can also cause it to lose its juice.
- Make sure the meat is cooked through on the inside before removing it from the pan or grill.
- Let the patties rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juice to distribute evenly throughout the meat.

Creativity is required! The topping of a burger is at least as important as the meat. Here are some ideas for creative toppings:
- Classic: tomatoes, lettuce, onions and cheese
- Mediterranean: Arugula, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese and olives
