Equipment

  • frying pan
  • spatula
  • skewer optional

Ingredients
 

  • 1 vegetarian patty
  • 1 slice cheddar cheese
  • 1 lauge bun or use regular burger buns
  • 2 small leaves iceberg lettuce
  • 1/4 avocado
  • pickled onions or use pickles
  • tomato ketchup
  • oil or butter
  • salt & pepper

Instructions

  • Toast the bun in a frying pan without oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add a bit of oil and place the patty in the pan. Fry on both sides for about 30 seconds, then press it down with the back of a spatula while still in the pan. Fry for another few minutes on low to medium heat.
  • Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the patty. Turn off the heat, cover the pan with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Heat another frying pan over medium-high heat. Add oil or butter, crack in an egg and fry it in the way you like it.
  • Scoop out the avocado and mash it with the back of a fork. Spread it on the bottom bun.
  • Wash the lettuce and place 2 leaves on top of the mashed avocado.
  • Add tomato ketchup at the inner part on the top bun.
  • Wash and slice a tomato, cut a slice which is about 0.5 cm (¼ inch) thick.
  • Place the patty on top of the lettuce, then add the tomato slice.
  • Add the fried egg and pickled onions. Season with a little bit of salt and pepper.
  • Add the top bun and place the burger on a plate. Then, stick a skewer down the center of the burger to keep it all in place.
