Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients

4 beef patties 150–200 g each
4 slices Mahón-Menorca cheese
1 large onion thinly sliced
A handful of arugula
4 brioche burger buns
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

1 Cast-iron skillet or Frying Pan

Method

Season the beef patties with salt and pepper, and grill to your desired doneness.
In a skillet, heat olive oil and caramelize the sliced onions until deep golden and soft.
Place a slice of Mahón-Menorca on each patty during the last minute of grilling so it begins to melt.
Toast the buns lightly.
Assemble each burger with the beef patty, caramelized onions, and arugula. Serve immediately.

Notes

The creamy, tangy Mahón-Menorca elevates the classic burger with its unique flavor, while caramelized onions add a sweet depth that complements the beef.
