Retroburger with Beef & Old-School Cabbage Salad

Season the shredded cabbage lightly with salt and let it sit for a few minutes. Wash and slice the tomato.

Heat some oil in a pan and cook the patties over medium heat for 3–4 minutes on each side. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

After flipping to the second side, add cheese on top and let it melt while the patty finishes cooking.

Toast the burger buns in the same pan.

For the sauce, mix together crushed garlic, mayonnaise, mustard, and ketchup.

Massage the cabbage with your hands until softer, then mix it with the prepared sauce. If needed, add 2-3 tbsp of water to achieve a juicy salad.

Place the patty, tomato slices, and cabbage salad on the bottom half of the bun. Cover with the top half of the bun.
