One of the most popular dishes in Mallorca and around the world
Years ago, hamburgers were considered a quick solution for dinner. Today, however, they have become one of the most popular gastronomic products. Specialised restaurants, international competitions and gourmet creations have elevated the burger into a signature dish, proving that it can be much more than a simple sandwich.
Among all these creative combinations with artisan breads, aged cheeses and gourmet sauces, one element remains the true star: the meat. A burger may include the finest ingredients, but without quality meat the final result will never be the same. Texture, juiciness and flavour all depend on the quality of the product and how it is prepared.
At Ramaders Agrupats we work with locally sourced meats, paying attention to every detail from origin to table. As proud Mallorcans, we would like to share a burger inspired by the flavours of Mallorca, made with products that are part of our traditional gastronomy and that highlight the work of local producers. It is a combination that works perfectly: sobrassada provides depth and character, Mahón cheese adds creaminess, and ramallet tomato brings the fresh Mediterranean touch that ties everything together.
Recipe: Mallorca burger
Ingredients:
- 300 g minced beef, pork or mixed meat
- 60 g sobrasada
- 2 slices of Mallorca cheese
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Ramallet tomato (to taste)
- 1 llonguet bread roll
Preparation
- Place the minced meat in a bowl and season with salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the sobrassada and mix until well combined.
- Shape the mixture into a 300 g burger and flatten slightly. Press gently in the centre with your thumb to prevent it from swelling while cooking.
- Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat with a little olive oil. Cook the burger to your preferred doneness.
- Turn the burger over and place the slices of Mahón cheese on top, allowing them to melt slowly.
- Toast the llonguet bread roll and rub the base with ramallet tomato, following the traditional Mallorcan pa amb oli style.
- Assemble the burger and serve immediately to enjoy all its flavour.
