Made a much simpler version of the famous Flying Dutchman burger this weekend to snack over while my brother and I binged over Scandal. I did not have to leave the house at all thanks to @_mrd_za having delivered my ingredients to my doorstep. I’m a sucker for convenience and loved how convenient it was to put all this together! When I say we were SEATED after having these? They were tewwww Good!
Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Remove the boerewors meat from its casing and weigh out 70g portions, about 3 tablespoons. Shape each portion into a ball and repeat until all the meat is used.
Place each meatball between two squares of baking paper and press with a spatula to form a flat patty. Repeat for all the meatballs.
Refrigerate the patties. Meanwhile, cut the PnP Large Peeled Onions into thick slices.
Heat a pan over medium-low heat and add oil. Once hot, add the onion slices, sprinkle with sugar and salt, and cook until the edges turn golden. Gently flip and caramelise the other side.
Remove the caramelised onions from the pan and set aside.
Add more oil to the hot pan and cook 2 patties at a time. After about 3 minutes, flip the patties and place a slice of cheese on each. Cook for another 2 minutes.
Add the onion slices back into the pan and assemble the burgers by placing the patties on top of an onion slice, and top with another onion slice to form the bun.
Serve with crispy fries, burger mayonnaise, and some pickled chilies.
Ensure the patties are well chilled before cooking to help them hold their shape.
Caramelise the onions slowly to enhance their sweetness and flavor.
Can I use a different type of sausage?
Yes, you can use any sausage of your choice, but the flavor may vary.
What cheese works best for this recipe?
Any melting cheese like cheddar or mozzarella works well.
Can I prepare the patties in advance?
Yes, you can shape and refrigerate the patties a day in advance.
How do I store leftovers?
Store leftover patties and onions separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
What can I serve with these burgers?
Serve with crispy fries, burger mayonnaise, and pickled chilies for added flavor.
