This homemade burger combines two juicy beef patties, melted cheddar cheese, and all your favorite toppings stacked high on a buttery toasted bun. Whether you’re grilling outdoors or cooking on a stovetop, this burger delivers the perfect balance of flavor, texture, and satisfaction.

Ingredients :

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
• Salt & black pepper
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 2 burger buns
• 2 tbsp butter (for toasting buns)
• Lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles (optional)
• Burger sauce or ketchup/mayo

Mix the dry ingredients :

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, and salt until evenly mixed. Add sunflower oil and lukewarm water, then knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until the dough doubles in size.

Place the minced meat in a mixing bowl and season with Ras el Kouzina, black pepper, onion powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the breadcrumbs, then mix everything together until well combined.

Shape the mixture into 12 equal burger patties. Heat a skillet or grill over medium heat and cook the burgers for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through.

Heat sunflower oil in a frying pan over high heat. Add the sliced yellow onion and sauté until the edges begin to turn golden brown. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the onions cook gently for 15 minutes until soft and caramelized. Stir in the ketjap manis, mix well, and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set the caramelized onions aside.

Divide the dough into 6 equal portions, about 70 grams each, and roll them into smooth, round balls.

Take one dough ball and gently flatten it into a round disk. Begin layering the filling in this order: a spoonful of sauce, a slice of cheese, caramelized onions, one burger patty, another layer of sauce, more cheese, and finish with the second burger patty.

Carefully fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, making sure there are no openings so the ingredients stay inside while baking.

Arrange the buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly brush the tops with egg yolk, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and let them rise for 30 minutes before baking.

Bake the stuffed burger buns in a preheated oven at 200°C (390°F) for 10–15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the buns are fully cooked through.
