Breakfast: Breakfast Burger

Recipe by Daniel Seidman If you thought a breakfast burrito was great, wait until you eat this.

Ingredients

1/3 lb. ground chuck (per burger)
kosher salt
Black pepper
2 tbsp. butter, divided
1 egg
1 slice cheddar cheese
1/2 c. shredded hashbrowns
1 tbsp. ketchup
Burger bun

Instructions

Form beef into ball and flatten into burger shaped patty. Using small glass, cut out center of the patty to form a donut shaped burger. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat cast-iron skillet to medium high heat and melt in 1 tbsp. butter. Place burger seasoned side down and season the other side. Cook for 2 minutes on first side then flip. After the flip, crack egg into center of burger. Cover pan with lid and cook until white has set. When burger is done, immediately top with cheese so it will melt.
Melt remaining butter in separate pan over medium high heat and add in shredded hashbrowns. Fry until golden brown and crispy.
Place bun, cut side down, in pan used to cook burgers. Toast until lightly browned.
To build burger, spread ketchup on bottom bun then place burger on top. Top burger with hashbrowns and top bun. Slice burger in half to reveal egg inside.
