Instructions
-
Divide ground meat into two portions and form each into a very flat patty.
-
Chop cheese into four small squares and stack them.
-
Place stacked cheese on one patty, then cover with the second patty, sealing the edges to enclose the cheese.
-
Season the assembled patty with salt and pepper.
-
Heat a greased frying pan to medium-high and place the burger inside.
-
Cook one side until crispy and halfway done, then flip and cook the other side for about 7 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
-
Remove the pan from heat and cover it with a lid.
-
Spread mayo and mustard on both bun halves, then assemble the burger with lettuce, tomato, and onion.
-
Slice the burger in half before serving.
