I forgot Oil in the macros of the video
Macros: 882 calories, 107C, 28F, 58P
1 burger bun 200 calories
180g ground beef 95/5
1/2 yellow onion
30g pickles
50g tomato
6g oil
15g light mayo
15g zero sugar added ketchup
1 slice american cheese 60 calories
Salt

350g peeled potatoes
1/4 tsp each onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, black pepper
1/4 tsp baking soda
Salt

Peel potatoes, slice them into a kind of french fries shape, and add them to a pot. Fill the pot with water until potatoes are covered, then add a strong pinch of salt and baking soda. Let the potatoes simmer on medium heat for 8 minutes. Drain the water and add potatoes to a bowl. Add a bit of oil and seasoning and give the potatoes a shake.

Transfer potatoes to an air fryer or oven at 200°C or 400°F for 20 minutes.

In the meantime prepare all burger ingredients and dice the vegetables. Split the beef into 2 portions and form 2 burger balls. Season them with salt and prepare 2 pieces of parchment paper per burger.

Start by frying the onions for 2-3 minutes with a pinch of salt in a cast iron pan with a bit of oil. Toast the buns for 20 seconds to get them lightly toasted.

Add a bit of il and then the burger balls with the parchment paper on top. Now take a spatula and anything heavy like a water bottle. Press down the beef balls until they are super thin. After 45-60 seconds flip both burgers and add a slice of American cheese on top. After another 45-60 seconds place the beef patty without the cheese on top of the patty with the cheese so it can melt and remove from the heat.

Build the burger. Add ketchup and mayo on top of the bottom bun, then the onions, the beef patties, the pickles, and the tomatoes. Lastly, add another bit of ketchup and mayo and top with the bun. Wrap the burger in aluminum foil for 3-4 minutes so the steam can make the burger soft.

The fries should be ready now, so add them to a plate and add additional seasoning if you want and enjoy your meal!

    Using your recipes for some time now (4-5 months) and lost 5kg. Doesnt seem alot but im mentally not really in a good shape why I cant bring myself to do any kind of sport or workout whatsoever, so I'm still very proud to achieved these results over the past few months and also in the future :) I also dont feel like i'm dieting at all since almost everything is so delicious :)
  • @Wolf_3125
    Burgers and fries are my number one junk food so watching how to make a healthier version puts a smile on my face!
  • This looks incredible. Looking forward to trying it out! Thanks so much for your help with the book by the way. I was the one who stupidly didn't set up an account to link to the book! 😂
  • @greentruck2wa
    Some really great cooking tips! Foiling the burger up before eating is a game changer! Thank you so much
  • @MelvaCross
    It's really hard to adhere to a diet. But this don't scream "diet" at me. I mean, you're still eating a burger and fries. It's just a smarter way of eating. With as little compromises as you can. Thus far, I'm a fan of your recipes, even if it's sometimes hard to find certain ingredients (like Gochujang).
  • @Dad_Lyon
    Felu is all about baking soda, great addition for baked potatoes
  • @melissareid640
    Well, I am back I have a lot of videos to catch up on. This looks delicious I still struggle to eat bread after cancer. I am now in recovery and had another all-clear exam this Tuesday. So I am ready to try some of your beautiful recipes! Thank You. You are amazing.
  • @evandarling699
    I'm definitely trying this one! And you look so amazingly fit!!❤❤

    I'm amused at how widespread Five Guys has become. I was visiting Paris in 2019 and was shocked to find a Five Guys location right there on Avenue des Champs-Élysées.

    Hi Felu Thanks for another great video Here in Canada we have a fat free cheddar that's amazing. It's 30 cals per slice and 4gr of protein. I like to make cubano sandwiches and high protein grilled cheese and it tastes amazing. You should give it a try. The texture is similar and gooey
  • @s.sradon9782
    I have never ever seen spray oil in a store, it is however incredible for losing weight together with sweeteners, black coffee and protein.
  • @josephroa4475
    Looks delicious for sure. I never take the skin off the potatoes as I like it on them. I have a knife that makes crinkle cut fries.
  • @Reyas
    Drop the chips for a well portioned sized meal for those on lower calorie diets.
  • @chasescooper
    You can get the burger on lettuce instead of a bun. Helps a ton. But yeah five guys is a cheat day meal heh 😁
  • @nikooooo7661
    I love recipes like this, and I do make them often but sometimes I want the real thing. When I want the real thing, I plan ahead to have the meal I want and then just slam a low-calorie protein shake to fill in the remainder of my protein that was missing from the meal. In my opinion, it’s more enjoyable. Plus, it’s near impossible to find things like light mayo that aren’t loaded with seed oil and other bad ingredients so if I’m going to eat it, I might as well just go all in

    I didn't know the aluminum actually did a thing! that's awesome! thanks Felu
