Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into ½-inch thick wedges. Toss the wedges with 2 teaspoons of cooking oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
- While the potatoes roast, slice the mushrooms. Heat 1 teaspoon of cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and tender, about 4-5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then transfer to a plate and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the ground beef with the garlic powder, salt and pepper. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a patty about ¾-inch thick.
- In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of cooking oil over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Gouda cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.
- Split the potato buns and toast them lightly in the skillet or under the broiler until golden.
- Spread the creamy horseradish sauce on the cut sides of the buns. Place the cheesy patties on the bottom buns, top with the sautéed mushrooms and close with the top buns.
- Serve the burgers with the roasted potato wedges on the side.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy wedges, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting, then pat dry.
Let the patties rest for a couple of minutes after cooking to keep them juicy.
If you prefer a spicier sauce, add a dash of hot sauce or extra horseradish to the creamy horseradish sauce.
FAQ
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes, you can substitute Gouda with provolone, Swiss or cheddar for a different flavor.
How do I make the horseradish sauce from scratch?
Mix ¼ cup sour cream with 1-2 tablespoons prepared horseradish, a squeeze of lemon juice and salt to taste.
Can I use pre-sliced mushrooms?
Absolutely. Pre-sliced mushrooms save time and work just as well.
