👨‍🍳 Method

For the Meatball mix

  1. 1
    Mix the ground meat with the onion, garlic, paprika, salt and black pepper until evenly combined.
  2. 2
    Divide the mixture into 4 flat round patties, 2.5 cm thick. Press your thumb into the center of each patty so it doesn't puff up as it cooks.

To assemble

  1. 3
    Put the egg, mustard, salt and black pepper in the blender jar and blend about half a minute.

  2. 4
    Add the oil in a thin, slow stream, while the blender is running, until a thick emulsion forms.
    Blender
    💡The thin stream is everything: fat that goes in too fast can't bind, and the sauce breaks. For mayonnaise and hollandaise, if this happens, start with a fresh yolk and slowly add the broken sauce to it; if the sauce is too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water.
  3. 5
    Add the lemon juice and stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  4. 6
    Heat a grill pan over high heat and grease lightly.
    StoveGrill pan
    💡A very thin layer of fat, with the excess wiped off with paper towel: too much fat gives spots and fried edges.
  5. 7
    Fry the meatballs 4–5 minutes per side, until they are done to your liking.
    Stove
    💡Don't press the patties with a spatula or flip them more than once: the juices run out and the patty dries out or falls apart. It releases from the pan once the underside is browned.
  6. 8
    Halve the gluten-free bread and toast them on the grill pan for 1 minute.
    Knife
  7. 9
    Spread the mayonnaise on the gluten-free bread.
  8. 10
    Arrange the lettuce and tomatoes in each gluten-free bread, and top with a hot patty and the red onion. Serve immediately with homemade fries.
