Method
Slice the onion into thin rings; if using tomato and pickles, slice them, and wash and dry the lettuce leaves.
Divide the 600 g minced beef into 4 equal balls without overworking it.
Flatten each ball into a patty slightly wider than the bun, about 1.5 cm thick, and press a dimple in the centre with your finger.
Heat the 1 tbsp oil in a pan or grill pan over high heat until very hot.
Season the patties on both sides with the 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper right before cooking.
Cook the patties for 4 minutes per side until browned with a dark crust; if using cheese slices, add them in the last minute and cover the pan until melted.
Split the buns and toast them cut-side down in the pan for 1 minute until golden.
Spread the buns with mayonnaise and mustard if using, stack the lettuce, tomato, patty, onion and pickles, and serve hot.
