Burger and Spaghetti

Joey used a burger wallpaper on the laptop last week. The picture is so mouth-watering that everytime I use the computer I stare on the desktop for a few minutes before continuing whatever I wanna do. teehee. We’ve decided to make the picture real by making our own home-made burger. As for the spaghetti, Hendrix said that it’s his birthday that day so we cooked him his favorite spaghetti.

Here are the ingredients:

For home-made burger:

almost ¾ ground lean beef

Burger buns

Oil for frying

1 white onion sliced

1 cucumber sliced

2 big tomatoes sliced

lettuce

cheese

mayonnaise

1 teaspoonful sliced pickles

salt

pepper

For spaghetti:

¾ penne pasta (cooked)

1 560 ml of spaghetti sauce (Italian Style)

1 250 ml of spaghetti sauce (Mushroom flavor)

3 70g sachet of tomato paste

2 small cheddar cheese spread

1 240 ml can of pineapple juice

1 small can of mushroom

½ kilo of ground pork

2 medium red onion, chopped

5 pcs. garlic, minced

7 pcs. tomatoes, diced

3 pcs. small carrots, diced

2 pcs. small bell pepper, diced

8 pcs. cheese hotdog, sliced

Oil for sautéing

water

salt

pepper

Preparation:

Patties:

In a bowl, mix the ground beef, salt, and pepper with your hands.
Flatten the beef into patty using your hands. Make it ¾-inch thick and 5 inches in diameter.
Fry the patty in the pan for 5-4 minutes but make sure to flip it every 2 minutes.
Remove the patty from the pan and put it in the paper towel to remove excess oil.

Burger:

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, pickles, salt, and pepper.
Spread some of the mixture in the burger bun and place the patty.
Add the letuce, tomatoes, onions, and cheese.

Spaghetti:

Sauté the onion and garlic until golden brown and then add the ground pork.
Wait for the ground pork to cook, usually takes 5-7 minutes in medium heat fire.
Add the hotdog, carrots, and sliced mushrooms. Saute for 3-5 minutes
Add all the sauce, cheddar cheese spread, pineapple juice, and 1cup of water.
Put salt and pepper to taste. Add the bell pepper.
Simmer for 10-15 minutes. Stir every every 3 minutes to avoid the sauce sticking in the bottom of the pan.
Add grated cheese on top of the pasta spaghetti.

Douzo Meshiagare!
