In a world where fast food chains and eateries can be found on every street corner, there is something special about delicious homemade burgers with a twist. Not only can you choose the ingredients yourself, but the process of creating your own perfect burger is a true culinary journey. Let’s take a look at some of the different types of burgers you can easily make at home, taking your taste buds on a world tour.
Classic cheeseburger
Let’s start with a classic. A juicy beef burger topped with melted cheddar, crispy lettuce leaves, tomato slices, onion rings and a lick of mayonnaise on a soft bun. Simple, but oh so delicious.
BBQ baconburger
For lovers of savoury flavours, the BBQ Bacon Burger is a must-try. Add some smoky barbecue sauce to your burger, top it with slices of crispy fried bacon and top it off with some sauteed onion and a slice of melting provolone cheese. A heavenly combination of flavours.
Surf ‘n turf-burger
Combine the best of land and sea by combining a juicy beef burger with a fried crab cake on top. Add a slice of melted cheese, some freshly chopped lettuce and a dash of lemon-garlic sauce for a delectable taste experience.
Greek gyros burger
Take a pita or soft hamburger bun and fill it with a grilled lamb burger. Then add some tzatziki sauce, slices of cucumber, tomato and chopped red onion. This will give your burger a Mediterranean twist that will elevate your taste buds.
Black bean veggie burger
For the vegetarians among us, the black bean veggie burger is a great choice. Mix black beans, oatmeal, onion, garlic and spices together to form a firm mixture. Form into burgers and fry them in the pan until golden brown. Serve on a whole-wheat bun with avocado, lettuce and a spicy chipotle mayonnaise.
Caprese burger
For a light and refreshing option, make a Caprese Burger. Pile slices of mozzarella, tomato and fresh basil leaves on top of a grilled chicken burger. Drizzle with red or green pesto and serve on a ciabatta bun for a delicious Italian treat.
Whether you opt for a classic cheeseburger or an exotic surf ‘n turf creation. Making your own burgers at home offers endless opportunities. So get out the apron, heat up the grill and let your taste buds enjoy these delicious homemade burgers with a twist.
