Categories     Dinner

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar)
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon sriracha or to taste
4 russet potatoes
1 cup of vegetable oil for frying, or more as needed
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground pork
2 tablespoons finely minced garlic (about 4 cloves)
1 1/2 cups finely minced yellow onion, divided (1/2 cup will be used to top the cooked burgers)
3 tablespoons ketchup
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons sweet Spanish paprika
2 teaspoons smoked paprika (sweet not spicy)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Black pepper, to taste
8 Cuban rolls, brioche rolls or hamburger buns, toasted
Lettuce leaves, optional

Steps:

  • To make the sauce, mix all of the ingredients together in a small saucepan: ketchup (1 cup), water (1/4 cup), vinegar (1 tablespoon), sweet paprika (1 1/2 teaspoons), cumin (1 teaspoon), salt (1 teaspoon), oregano (1/2 teaspoon) and sriracha (1/2 teaspoon). Cook at a gentle simmer, partially covered, for 5 minutes. Sauce can be made a day ahead and refrigerated until ready to use.
  • Peel the potatoes and shred them on a box grater or in your food processor with the coarse shredding blade. Swish them in a bowl of cold water, pour out cloudy water, and repeat until the water is clear. Just before frying, drain them in a colander and dry them well by squeezing them between several clean absorbent dish towels. The dryer the better for getting them crisp and brown. Pour oil into a heavy, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and fry the potatoes, in small batches, until they're golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with salt.
  • Make the meat mixture in a large bowl or in a food processor. Combine ground meats with 1 cup of the onions and the garlic (2 tablespoons). Mix by hand or pulse a few times in the food processor, to combine. Add ketchup ( 3 tablespoons), cumin (1 teaspoon), paprika (2 teaspoons), smoked paprika (2 teaspoons) and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt. Mix by hand or pulse just until combine. Form the meat into 8 thin patties.
  • Cook patties in batches, on a preheated flat griddle or in a frying pan coated with a little vegetable oil, over medium heat, for 2-4 minutes per side or until they're cooked to your liking. (I suggest medium rare to medium). Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • To assemble the fritas, spread some special sauce over the bottom half of a bun. Place a patty on top, add more sauce, some finely chopped raw onion and a big pile of shoestring fried potatoes. Spread a little sauce on the inside of the top bun and place it on top. Repeat with remaining burgers. Serve immediately.

FRITA CUBANA-(CUBAN HAMBURGERS)-NUWAVE/FLAVORWAVE

This is a wonderful Cuban Style (Hamburger recipe). A family favorite, this comes from a friend from Florida by way of Cuba. It has unqiue taste that sets is a part from all the others, and everyone who tries this Ham Burger wants this recipe. There is no question this is my top recipe for the grill in the summer. Note, this recipe makes 6-8 regular sized burgers or 4 really big ones for a hungry people! I also use Walla Walla Sweet onions if you like a sweeter flavor in your onions.

FRITA CUBANO

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pound 80/20 ground beef
1/2 pound Mexican chorizo
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 medium white onions, chopped
12 slices Swiss cheese
12 mini Hawaiian rolls, cut in half
Mini French Fries, recipe follows
3 large russet potatoes
1 quart peanut oil
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the quick mojo aioli: Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, cumin, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder. Cover and refrigerate until ready to dress the burgers.
  • For the burgers: Mix the ground beef, chorizo, cumin, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper in a large bowl, folding it over itself until thoroughly mixed. Let the meat rest 15 minutes at room temperature or for up to 4 hours refrigerated. Shape the meat into 12 balls all the same size, then lightly press them into chubby round patties.
  • Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the onions and sweat until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the patties on top of the onions and press the patties onto the onions using a spatula. Let cook, 3 to 4 minutes; the onions will continue to cook and caramelize in the patty juices, adding flavor to the patties. Flip the patties and cook until firm, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove from the heat and top with the Swiss cheese.
  • Spread 1 tablespoon mojo aioli on the bottoms of each Hawaiian roll, then top with a patty and a generous handful of the Mini French Fries. Serve.
  • Peel the potatoes, then shred them on the largest holes of a box grater. Soak in cold water to remove starch and prevent browning, 5 minutes. Strain in a colander and dry on paper towels.
  • Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 375 degrees F.
  • Fry the potatoes in batches, moving the potatoes gently with a spider to keep them separated, until brown and crispy, about 4 minutes. Remove to a bowl, season with salt and toss to ensure all the fries are thoroughly seasoned.

FRITA CUBANA -- CUBAN HAMBURGER



Frita Cubana -- Cuban Hamburger image

I went to a Cuban restaurant monday and had a Frita for the first time. Yummy. I knew that the burger ingredients were ground beef, ground pork and chorizo. Some do not use the chorizo....I did. The sauce; I got a little help from a Cuban friend. I had to cook these today for my Hubby. He loved 'em.
