Tortilla burger trend: Tasty twist on the classic hamburger

Tortilla burgers are a real playground for creative chefs. You can experiment with different types of meat, toppings, and sauces to create unique flavor 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 far superior.

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

Ingredients:

Sauce:

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

Rest of the ingredients:

          
• 14 ounces beef chuck
• 4 mini tortillas
• 4 ounces cheddar cheese slices
• 1 cup 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, 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!
