Instrukcijos

  • To make the patties: Combine all the ingredients, cover with plastic wrap and let it sit in the fridge for 1-2 hours. For the best results, let it sit overnight.
  • To make the paprika mayo: Simply mix all the ingredients until combined.
  • To make the shrimp: Dry the shrimp really well and combine with other ingredients. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit for 1 hour.
  • Divide the chorizo-mixture into 4 equal portions, then shape into patties. Don't forget that the diameter of a patty should be slightly larger than the diameter of your bun, because meat tends to shrink during the cooking process.
  • Pour some vegetable oil into a skillet heated over medium heat until it's really hot. Then add 1-2 patties at a time. Pan-fry the patties without moving them for 2-4 minutes on each side.
  • After the patties are flipped over, add some shredded Manchego cheese and place a lid on the skillet (steam will melt the cheese).
  • Cook the shrimp for several minutes without cleaning the skillet after baking chorizo patties. This will add some more flavour to the shrimp.
  • Apply paprika mayo on both sides of the bun. Add the chorizo patty on the bottom bun, apply several slices of tomato on the top of the patty. Finally, add some shrimp and close the burger with the top bun.
  • Enjoy your luxury burger!!!
