Burger and Fries Combo Recipe

American · Main course · 45 min total

A classic American burger with crispy fries, perfect for a satisfying homemade meal. This recipe delivers juicy patties and golden fries with simple ingredients.

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs ground beef (80/20)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 4 hamburger buns
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 4 leaves lettuce
• 4 slices tomato
• 4 slices red onion
• 4 tbsp ketchup
• 4 tbsp mustard
• 4 large russet potatoes
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp paprika

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Wash and cut potatoes into thin fries (about 1/4-inch thick). Soak in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
2. Toss fries with olive oil, salt, and paprika. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
3. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into patties slightly larger than the buns (they shrink when cooking).
4. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness. In the last minute, top each patty with a slice of cheese and cover to melt.
5. Toast buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly browned.
6. Assemble burgers: place lettuce, tomato, onion on bottom bun, then patty with cheese, then ketchup and mustard on top bun. Serve immediately with fries.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add a slice of bacon or pickles to the burger.
• Fries can be seasoned with garlic powder or rosemary instead of paprika.
• Leftover burgers can be refrigerated and reheated in a skillet.
• Serve with a side of ranch dressing or mayonnaise for dipping fries.
