Tortilla burgers take the culinary world by storm

The tortilla burger is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to the classic hamburger, where a soft tortilla is used instead of a bun. This fusion of Mexican and American flavours has garnered many fans worldwide.

Tortilla burgers are a real playground for creative chefs. You can experiment with different types of meat, toppings, and sauces to create unique flavour combinations. In our recipe, we keep it classic—ground beef, a sauce reminiscent of the popular Big Mac sandwich, and lettuce. No one will miss the classic fast food because the tortilla burger is superior.

The tortilla adds lightness and freshness to the dish while perfectly complementing the juicy meat, vegetables, and sauces. Additionally, the recipe is straightforward, so you can prepare it quickly and effortlessly.

Ingredients:

Sauce:

• 1 small pickled cucumber,
• ¼ onion,
• 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise,
• 2 tablespoons of ketchup,
• 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar,
• ½ teaspoon of salt,
• 1 teaspoon of dried garlic,
• 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika.

Rest of the ingredients:

• 400 grams of beef chuck,
• 4 mini tortillas,
• 115 grams of cheddar cheese slices,
• 250 millilitres of chopped iceberg lettuce,
• 1 pickled cucumber,
• ¼ onion.

Instructions:

Step 1. Start with the sauce. Grate the cucumber and onion. Add mayonnaise, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, salt, dried garlic, and sweet paprika.

Step 2. Grind the meat in a grinder and form it into balls. Lay the mini tortillas on the counter, place a meatball on each, and flatten it.

Step 3. Heat some oil in a pan and place the tortilla and meat side down. Fry, then flip it over and season with salt and pepper. Place a cheese slice on top and cover with a lid. Keep on the pan until the cheese melts.

Step 4. Spread sauce on the tortilla burger and add the chopped lettuce. Add diced onion and cucumber, and fold in half. Enjoy!
