Yield Makes 8 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 11

18 oz (about 2 1/2 cups) ground beef
2 teaspoons tomato ketchup
1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
4 scallions, finely chopped
1 egg, lightly beaten
4 oz Cheddar cheese, cut into 8 small pieces
flour for dusting
vegetable oil for brushing
8 small part-baked bread rolls
tomato salsa for serving
8 romaine lettuce leaves

Steps:

  • Mix together the beef, sauces, scallions, and egg in a large bowl. With damp hands, divide the mixture into 8 balls, then shape into flat patties.
  • Insert a piece of cheese in the center of each patty. Wrap the meat around the cheese and shape into a burger. Place on a lightly floured plate and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Brush the burgers with oil and cook on a cast-iron grill-pan or under a hot broiler for 5-8 minutes on each side.
  • Meanwhile, bake the rolls according to the manufacturer's instructions. Split them in half and top the bottoms with the cooked burgers, tomato salsa, and a lettuce leaf.
  • If you are cooking on a barbecue, place the burgers on a lightly oiled barbecue grill over medium heat, so they do not burn on the outside before being cooked through. Cook for 5-8 minutes on each side.
