Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Grate half the onion on a box grater and slice the 1 lb potatoes into thin rounds.

  2. Step 2

    Mix the 1 lb ground beef with the grated onion, 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp pepper; form 4 patties.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high and brown the patties, about 5-6 minutes per side, until no pink remains.

  4. Step 4

    Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil and fry the potato slices in a single layer, 10-12 minutes, turning until golden outside and tender inside.

  5. Step 5

    Thinly slice the cucumber and toss with a small pinch of salt; let it sit 5 minutes to lightly pickle.

  6. Step 6

    Rest the patties 2 minutes, then serve hot with the potatoes and cucumber alongside.
