Ingredients
  

Dough

  • 14 oz bread flour
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • ⅓ oz dry yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1½ tbsp sugar
  • ¾ cup warm water

Burger Sauce

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1 tbsp mustard sauce
  • 1 tsp Tabasco chili sauce
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Burger Fillings & Assembly

  • 6 beef burger patties 5 oz / 150 g each
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 10 oz potato fries 300 g
  • Oil for deep frying fries
  • 18 cheddar cheese slices 3 per bun
  • 6 oz pickled jalapeño peppers
  • 6 oz pickled cucumbers sliced

Topping & Wash

  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds

Instructions
 

Make the Dough

  • Combine flour, egg, oil, dry yeast, salt, sugar, and warm water in a bowl. Knead for 10 minutes.

Proof the Dough

  • Shape into a ball, place in a bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour. (During this rising time, prepare the sauce, patties, and fries).

Make the Burger Sauce

  • Mix mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, Tabasco, and parmesan cheese until smooth.

Cook the Beef Patties

  • Season patties with salt and pepper. Grill or sear for 1 minute per side (2 minutes total).

Fry the Potatoes

  • Fry potato fries in hot oil for 4 minutes until golden. Drain on paper towels.

Roll the Dough

  • Divide risen dough into 6 equal portions and roll each into a 10-inch circle.

Assemble the Stuffed Buns

  • Place a dough circle into a small bowl for support. Layer with 1 slice cheddar cheese, 1 beef patty, 2 tbsp sauce, pickled jalapeños, pickled cucumbers, second slice of cheddar, ⅙ of fries, and a third slice of cheddar.

Seal the Dough

  • Fold the dough edges over the filling and seal tightly. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet.

Bake

  • Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake at 360°F (180°C) for 15 minutes.
  • Why shape the dough in a bowl? Placing the rolled dough inside a shallow bowl before layering your fillings creates a natural nest. This holds the heavy burger, sauce, pickles, and fries intact so you can tightly seal the dough edges without spilling any ingredients.
