Smash Burger Tacos

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef (80/20 fat ratio)

  • 6 small flour tortillas (6-inch)

  • 6 slices of cheddar cheese

  • 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

  • Cornichons

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Cooking oil for the skillet

For the Burger Sauce:

  • ½ cup yoghurt

  • 1 tablespoon tomato sauce

  • 1 tablespoon seeded mustard


Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, mix all the burger sauce ingredients until well combined. Set aside.

  2. Divide the ground beef into 6 equal portions and roll them into balls.

  3. Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and lightly oil it.

  4. Place a beef ball onto the skillet, then immediately press a tortilla over it, smashing the beef into a thin layer that adheres to the tortilla.

  5. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned. Flip the tortilla so the beef side is up.

  6. Place a slice of cheese on the beef and cook for another minute until the cheese melts.

  7. Remove from the skillet and top with shredded lettuce, pickle slices, and a drizzle of burger sauce.

  8. Fold and serve immediately.
