The Perfect Burger


Who doesn’t love a good juicy burger? A perfectly grilled thick beef patty in between a soft burger bun is perfect to be eaten at any time of the day. Technically a sandwich, practically anything under the sun can be inside. The most common additions would be bacon, egg and onion to the somewhat acquired taste such as artichoke, beetroot and foie gras.

Although we can go in so many directions with burgers, sometimes simplicity is perfection. Get your grill fired up because we are about to start cooking some great burgers!

The Burger

Beef Patty
  • 500 g beef mince
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 2 tsp garlic chopped
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumb
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce


The Burger
  • 120 g beef patty
  • 30 g crispy bacon
  • 20 gr mushroom button, sautéed
  • 20 g white onion, caramelized
  • 20 gr pickled jalapeno, sliced
  • 20 gr gherkin, sliced
  • 1 slice American White cheddar cheese
  • 2 leaves of iceberg lettuce
  • 15 g tomato sauce
  • 5 g yellow mustard
  • 1 pcs burger bun, toasted


Method:
  1. Beef Patty: Place beef mince in a bowl and add all ingredients. Mix until all of the ingredients are well incorporated without over mixing
  2. Sear the beef patty on high heat to create a charred surface, cook each side for 3-4 minutes and turn the heat to medium, placing the sliced cheese on top to melt.
  3. The Burger: Spread tomato sauce and mustard sparingly on toasted bun, lettuce, cooked patty with melted cheese, mushroom, gherkin, jalapeno and at last crispy bacon.




A bowl of hand cut fries would be the perfect pairing to this perfectly juicy burger. Make sure you have extra napkins nearby because it is going to be deliciously messy!

For the best burger in South Kuta, head down to KaBar! Opens daily 11.00 – 23.00
