Main course. 4 persons. Preparation 25 min.
Ingredients
- 1 red onion
- 2 beef tomatoes
- 4 hamburger buns
- 300 g Beemster® Jong Belegen 48+
- 50 g wheat flour
- 2 eggs
- 75 g panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 4 tbsp mayonnaise
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 8 pickle slices (jar)
Kitchen Stuff
- grill pan
- kitchen paper
Prepare
- Cut the onion into thin rings and cut the tomato into thick slices. Cut the rolls in half.
- Heat a grill pan without oil or butter and grill the onion rings for 5 min. Turn halfway through. Grill the bun halves 1 min. on the cut side. Meanwhile, cut the rind off the cheese and cut the piece of cheese into 4 equal pieces about 5 x 5 cm and about 2.5 cm thick.
- Mix the flour and pepper in a deep plate. Beat the eggs in a second deep plate. Also put the panko in a third deep plate. Pass the cheese slices successively through the flour, roll through the egg and through the panko. Make sure the cheese is completely covered with the panko.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet and fry the breaded cheese for 4-5 min over medium-high heat until golden brown and crispy. Carefully turn the cheeseburger halfway through using a spatula and drain on kitchen paper.
- Spread both halves of the buns with the mayonnaise. Top the bottom of the buns with some lettuce, a cheeseburger, tomato slices, pickle and red onion. Cover with the top of the buns. Delicious with fresh fries from the oven.
