Step-by-Step Preparation
- Prepare
the Patty
In a mixing bowl, combine ground meat (or veg patty mix), onion, garlic paste, black pepper, chili flakes, and salt. Mix well and shape into round patties. - Cook
the Patty
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Place the patties and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side until fully cooked. - Melt
the Cheese
Once the patties are almost cooked, place a slice of cheese on top and cover the pan for 1–2 minutes. This will melt the cheese beautifully over the patty. - Toast
the Buns
Spread a little butter on the buns and toast them lightly on a pan until golden brown. - Assemble
