Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut potatoes into ½-inch thick wedges. Toss with 2 teaspoons cooking oil and half the garlic powder. Spread on a baking sheet and roast until golden and tender, about 20-25 minutes.
2. While potatoes roast, slice mushrooms. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.
3. In a bowl, combine ground beef with remaining garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Divide into 2 equal portions and shape into patties slightly larger than the buns.
4. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties until browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. During the last minute, top each patty with a slice of Gouda cheese and cover skillet to melt.
5. Split potato buns and toast lightly in the skillet or oven. Spread creamy horseradish sauce on both halves of each bun.
6. Assemble burgers: place bottom bun, add patty with melted Gouda, top with sautéed mushrooms, and close with top bun. Serve with roasted potato wedges on the side.
