Ingredients	Burger Buns 500 g all-purpose flour 7 g dry yeast 1 tbsp sugar 1 tsp salt 1 egg 2 tbsp butter (softened) 200 ml warm milk 50 ml warm water 1 egg (for egg wash) Sesame seeds (optional) Beef Patties 600 g ground beef (80/20 fat ratio ideal) 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional) A splash of Worcestershire sauce (optional) Burger Toppings (suggested) 6 slices cheddar cheese Lettuce leaves Sliced tomato Sliced red onion Pickles Ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard Olive oil or butter for grilling
Method	Burger Buns Begining In a bowl, mix yeast, sugar, and warm milk + water. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy. Add flour, salt, egg, and softened butter. Knead into a soft dough. Knead 8–10 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rise 1 hour or until doubled. Divide dough into 6 equal pieces, shape into balls, and place on a baking tray. Let rest 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle sesame seeds. Bake for 15–18 minutes until golden brown. Cool before slicing. Beef Patties In a bowl, gently mix ground beef with salt, pepper, and optional seasonings. Form 6 equal patties, slightly wider than the buns (they’ll shrink during cooking). Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil. Cook patties 3–4 minutes per side for medium, adding cheese in the last minute to melt. Assembling Burgers Toast bun halves lightly on a pan or grill. Spread sauces of your choice on the bun bottoms. Add lettuce, patty with melted cheese, tomato, onion, and pickles. Top with bun lid and serve immediately.
