By MOLLY YEH   –   Tastemade

INGREDIENTS

  • For the burgers:

  • 1 lb ground chuck and sirloin mix

  • Kosher salt, for seasoning

  • Pepper, for seasoning

  • 8 pretzel slider buns

  • 8 slices tomato

  • 8 leaves lettuce

  • Ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc., for topping

  • For the cheesy pickles:

  • 2 kosher dill pickle spears

  • 2 slices havarti cheese

  • 2 egg roll wrappers

  • Canola or vegetable oil, for frying

LET’S GET COOKING…

  1. Divide meat into 8 equal parts and form into patties. Salt and pepper both sides. Coat the bottom of a pan with oil and heat over medium heat. Cook the burgers on each side to desired doneness.

  2. To make the pickles: pat pickle spears with paper towel to remove excess moisture. Wrap pickle in cheese, then the egg roll wrapper, sealing with water if necessary. Heat 2 inches of oil in a large saucepan to 360℉. Fry the pickles on all sides until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Slice each pickle into 4 slices to garnish burgers with.

  3. Toast your burger buns, if desired, and top with tomato, lettuce, meat patty, condiments, and a slice of fried cheesy pickles. Enjoy!
