Equipment

  • Pan
  • Large cup or mug
  • Espresso cup or egg holder

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs ground beef
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 hamburger bun

Instructions
 

  • Place the ground beef in a bowl along with the salt and pepper and knead thoroughly.
  • Take about a quarter of the beef and press it flat on a clean surface. Use a large cup or mug to shape your ground beef into perfect circles that are the size of your hamburger buns. Cut away the excess beef and put it back into the bowl for later use. Now take a smaller receptacle, like an espresso cup or egg holder, and cut out a small circle in the center of the beef patty.
  • Gently release the patty from the work surface and place it into a pan preheated with vegetable oil. Flip your burger until evenly browned on both sides. Carefully pour the egg into the center of the patty, and then cover the pan with a lid for about four minutes.
  • Place the patty into a bun, add your favorite toppings, and enjoy!
