Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 pound Ground pork
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 2 cups Potato sticks (store-bought or homemade)
- 4 pieces Soft hamburger buns
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 cup White onion, finely chopped
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, black pepper, and tomato paste. Mix thoroughly but gently to avoid overworking the meat.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about 1/2 inch thick. Place the patties on a plate and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the ketchup and white vinegar to create a tangy sauce. Set aside for later use.
Preheat your Nuwave Flavorwave oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the patties on the Nuwave's rack, ensuring they aren't touching. Cook for 6-7 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
While the patties are cooking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and lightly toast the hamburger buns until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
To assemble the Frita Cubana, place each cooked patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun. Top each patty with a generous amount of the tangy ketchup sauce, a handful of potato sticks, and a sprinkling of finely chopped white onion.
Place the top bun on each burger, pressing down gently to help everything hold together.
Serve immediately and enjoy your authentic Frita Cubana!
