Ingredients
Scale
500g 15% fat beef mince
4 seeded brioche buns
8 cheese slices
Curly leaf or butterhead lettuce leaves
2 tomatoes, sliced
Pickled gherkins, sliced
Crispy onions
Mustard, ketchup, and/or burger sauce
Instructions
Preheat the air-fryer to 200°C (400°F).
Season the beef mince with salt and pepper. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape each into a ball. Flatten each ball into 1cm-thick patties.
Place the patties in the preheated air-fryer basket. Air-fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
Place cheese slices on top of each patty during the last minute of air-frying to melt.
Toast the brioche buns in the air-fryer if desired. Arrange lettuce leaves and tomato slices on the bottom halves of the buns. Place the cooked patties with melted cheese on top. Add sliced gherkins, crispy onions, and your favorite sauces. Close the burgers with the top halves of the buns.
