Instructions
- Make the Spicy Green Chili Sauce: Chop the green chili peppers into small cubes using a knife for best texture. Add salt and olive oil, then mix thoroughly by hand to create a juicy, succulent sauce.
- Prepare the Tomato Salsa: Peel the tomatoes to transform their texture. Chop them finely, then season with salt and black pepper. Add olive oil and mix well to create a fresh tomato salsa.
- Prepare Pickles and Other Condiments: Slice pickles and have sour cream and mayonnaise ready for layering inside the pita.
- Press the Burger Patty: Place ground beef on parchment paper inside a low-tech pressing machine. Cover with parchment paper and press firmly to create a thin smash burger patty.
- Cook the Burger Patty: Cook the pressed burger patty on a hot surface until done to preference (watch the video for exact cooking time).
- Assemble the Burger in Pita: Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of the pita, then add sour cream and arrange pickles neatly. Place the cooked burger patty inside the pita.
- Add Cheese Crown and Fold: Place fermental cheese on top of the burger to create a crown. Fold the pita around the burger and toppings carefully to hold everything together.
- Add Sauces and Final Touches: Pour some of the spicy green chili sauce and tomato salsa over the folded burger inside the pita. Drizzle with olive oil for extra flavor.
- Serve: Serve the folded cheeseburger immediately for the best taste experience.
