What you need

Tacos

  • 240 g ground beef
  • 3 small flour tortillas
  • 3 American cheese slices
  • 3 g kosher salt + black pepper

Cold stuff

  • 45 g shredded iceberg
  • 45 g dill pickles

  • Sesame seeds (optional)

Quick sauce

  • 60 g mayo + 18 g relish
  • 10 g ketchup + 8 g mustard

THE PLAN.

  1. Stir the sauce. Shred, slice, and dice the cold stuff. Make three 80 g beef balls.
  2. Press one beef ball thin onto each tortilla. Put it beef-side down in a hot skillet for 2–3 minutes.
  3. Flip. Add cheese and cook 45–75 seconds. Top with lettuce, pickles, onion, sauce, and fold.
