Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
- 4 pieces Rye burger buns
- 8 slices Pickled cucumbers
- 0.5 piece Red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 100 grams Plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Whole-grain mustard
- 100 grams Baby arugula
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and chopped dill. Mix gently until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties, roughly 1.5 cm thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the plain yogurt and whole-grain mustard to make the tangy mustard sauce. Set aside.
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Once hot, cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes.
While the patties are resting, slice the rye burger buns in half and toast them in a separate skillet with a little butter until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by spreading a generous layer of the mustard sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with a handful of baby arugula, one cooked patty, pickled cucumber slices, thin red onion slices, and the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Scandinavian-inspired burgers!
