Steps:
- To make the secret sauce, combine the tomato paste, water, orange juice, Spanish paprika, cumin, brown sugar, vinegar, salt and sriracha in a small sauce pan. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer 15 minutes or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- To make the fries, heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a heavy-bottomed pot to 350 degrees F.
- Carefully cut the potatoes into shoestrings (or matchsticks) using a mandolin fitted with the narrowest julienne blade (about 1/8-inch wide) or just use your knife (this is what I did). Rinse the cut potatoes thoroughly in a bowl of cold water to remove the surface starch. Keep the potatoes in water until you're ready to fry. (I like to begin frying mine while the burgers are cooking)
- To form the burger patties, combine the beef, chorizo, ketchup, Spanish paprika, cumin and a pinch salt and pepper in a bowl and mix until just combined. Form the meat into six patties.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook the burger until your desired doneness, but traditionally Fritas should be cooked to medium. During the last minute of cooking, add a slice of cheddar cheese.
- Meanwhile, fry the potatoes, transfer the potatoes to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and pat them dry, as dry as you can get them.
- Fry the potatoes in batches until the potatoes are crisp and turn a nice golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. As each batch of fries comes out, transfer to a large mixing bowl and toss with salt to taste. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet.
- Serve the burgers on warmed Cuban buns that have been slathered with a little special sauce. On to the bottom bun, place the burger, fries, more special sauce and top with a fried egg. Place the top bun over the egg, grab the burger with two hands and EAT!

- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the meatballs in the skillet, flattening them with the back of a spatula as they cook, about 7 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (72 degrees C).

FRITA CUBANA -- CUBAN HAMBURGER
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.

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.

MINI CUBAN BURGERS (FRITAS)
Steps:
- Place the bread crumbs in a large bowl. Cover with milk and soak for 2 minutes. Add the onion, the beaten egg, ground beef, lime juice, ketchup, garlic powder, salt, and paprika and work the ingredients together with your hands or a wooden spoon just until combined. Form the mixture into 12 small 1-inch thick patties and refrigerate them for at least 45 minutes or up to 8 hours.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1/2 of the burgers and brown them on each side, flipping with spatula, 5 to 7 minutes. Set the fritas on the rolls and cook the remaining burgers. Serve with generous amounts of ketchup.

- Combine the ground beef and chorizo in a bowl and sprinkle with the smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. In another bowl, combine the evaporated milk, panko and egg, and then add to the meat mixture. Combine well with your hands and form into 4 patties. Set aside.

Steps:
- First, we are going to make Burger Sauce #1 now, so it has time to cool down while we are making the patties. In a small bowl whisk all of the ingredients together for Burger Sauce #1. Transfer to a sauce pan and bring to a boil stirring continuously.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for 5-10 minutes. Take off of the heat when done and transfer to a squeeze bottle and let the sauce cool down.
- In a large bowl combine all ingredients for the burger patties. Mix together with your hands.
- Form burger patties. A trick I learned from Rachel Ray was to make sure the patties are a little thinner in the middle so when they are cooking they will cook evenly and not turn into a flying saucer. Cover and let all of the flavors combine while we prepare the shoestring potatoes and Burger Sauce #2. Chop onion half and reserve for when we cook the burger patties.
- Wash and peel potatoes. Using a julienne peeler or a mandolin slicer, slice potatoes into shoestring size strands. If you want to use store bought potato sticks you can.
- Submerge potatoes in a large bowl of ice water. Preheat oil in a fryer or large pot to 350 degrees.
- Burger Sauce #2. In a small bowl combine all of the ingredients together. Cover and let flavors combine.
- Heat a griddle or a cast iron skillet on medium high heat. Put patties down and sprinkle on some of the chopped onions. Cook 3-5 minutes depending on how thick your patties are.
- Right before you flip the patties squeeze some of Burger Sauce #1 on the the patty and onions and then flip.
- Continue cooking until burger is done another 3-5 minutes. Squeeze a little more of Burger Sauce #1 onto the patty and when cooked through using a spatula, remove from griddle making sure to get all of the onions that have cooked into the burger with the sauce.
- Remove potatoes from ice water and dry completely. I used a salad spinner to get all of the water off of the potatoes. Fry potatoes in fryer or pot for 3-5 minutes until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel.
- Assemble burger. Bottom bun, burger patty, shoestring potatoes, top bun slathered with Burger Sauce #2. Eat and enjoy!
CUBAN FRITA RECIPE
Steps:
- 1 We start by mixing the butter and the paprika in a bowl big enough until they get a reddish color (if the butter already has paprika included this step will not be necessary)
- 2 Then we add the ground beef and the salt; mix so that they integrate very well.
- 3 We wrap the dough in plastic wrap and take it to the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to better settle the flavor.
- 4 Meanwhile, we chop the onion into very small cubes and cut the potatoes into small and thin julienne strips. Set aside.
- 5 Now it is time to prepare the hamburgers, after two hours we use the dough we had put into the refrigerator, to form several meat balls using our hands.
- 6 Crush the balls to form a medallion and fry in a pan with a little hot oil. Take them off of the stove and set aside.
- 7 Once we have finished this, we soak the potato strings in enough water to remove the starch, drain the excess water and fry them in vegetable oil.
- 8 We add salt to the potato strings, when they are ready, we take them off of the stove and drain them on paper towels or kitchen paper.
- 9 We place the hamburger and the potatoes inside the bread along with the onion and the tomato sauce, getting the frita ready now to be enjoyed.
