Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1Sear the beef patty

    Place the raw beef patty into a preheated hot pan. Sear until the bottom is browned and develops a flavorful crust, then flip to cook the other side.

    Tip: Ensure the pan is sufficiently hot before adding the patty to achieve a good sear.
  2. 2Toast the burger buns

    Place the cut sides of the burger buns into the pan. Toast them until they are golden brown and slightly crispy to add texture to the burger.

    Tip: Keep a close watch on the buns as they can burn quickly in a hot pan.
  3. 3Slice the avocado

    Carefully slice the ripe avocado into thin, even sections on a cutting board. These slices will be layered onto the burger for a creamy texture.

    Tip: Use a sharp knife to get clean, uniform slices.
  4. 4Assemble the burger base

    Take the cooked beef patty from the pan and place it securely onto the center of the toasted bottom bun.

    Tip: Ensure the patty is well-drained of excess fat before placing it on the bun to prevent sogginess.
  5. 5Add avocado layer

    Take the prepared avocado slices and arrange them neatly over the beef patty. This adds a rich, creamy contrast to the savory meat.

    Tip: Fan the slices out slightly for better coverage and presentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Avocado oxidizes quickly when exposed to air. To prevent this, slice the avocado just before serving or brush the slices lightly with a little lemon or lime juice.
Use a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. This creates a superior sear and crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy.
Absolutely. While a sesame seed bun is traditional, a brioche bun adds a nice buttery sweetness that works exceptionally well with avocado.
