Serves 4
For The Patties
- 1 lb / 500g ground beef (how to grind your own meat)
- 2 pineapple rings, drained and crushed
- 1/2 handful grated cheese (equivalent to 4 slices)
- A dash of teriyaki or soy sauce (about 2 tablespoons)
- A little pepper (fresh ground is better)
- 1 handful fresh bread crumbs
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 quarter beef bouillon/stock cube dissolved in 2 to 3 tablespoons water
For the Rolls
- 4 rolls
- Sliced tomato
- Thinly sliced onion
- Lettuce
- Mayonnaise
Method
Mix all the patty ingredients thoroughly (how to season meat) . Make sure the mixture is cool. Divide mixture into 4 equal balls and mould into patties (how to mold patties) .
Cook on medium heat under the grill, on the barbecue or in a pan (how to regulate cooking temperature) until the patty is cooked to your preferred degree of doneness, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F / 70°C (when is my patty cooked?) .
Split the rolls and toast the cut surfaces lightly (under the grill, on the barbecue or in a pan) just before the patties are done. Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of the roll, add a thin slice of onion, some lettuce, a slice of tomato, the patty and the other half of the roll.
Bon Appétit!
