Inspired by Cuban street food, these burgers feature spiced beef and pork patties topped with crispy shoestring potatoes, ketchup, and onions.
Ingredients
3/4 pound ground beef 1/4 pound ground pork 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs 1/4 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pimenton de la vera (smoked spanish paprika)
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
Directions
Mix the ground beef, ground pork, bread crumbs, milk, egg, onion, ketchup, salt, Pimenton de la Vera, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper together in a large bowl until well combined; divide the mixture into 12 equal ball shapes. Place in refrigerator for 3 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the meatballs in the skillet, flattening them with the back of a spatula as they cook, about 7 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
