Cheeseburger escalivada

A new addition to our Catalan-American kitchen is the escalivada cheeseburger. We liked it, and we think you will too.

Burger Ingredients:
Ground meat (pork and beef mixture is good)
Bread crumbs
Egg
Ketchup
Garlic
Salt and Pepper
Cheese for topping

Escalivada Ingredients:
Eggplant
Red Pepper
Onion
Olive Oil

Preparation:
Cook the burgers on a grill or, if you are losers like us who don’t have a grill, in a frying pan. Slice the veggies and place on an oven tray covered in aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil and roast on high heat until they smell like escalivada.

Slice ciabatta bread and place burger in the center. Pile vegetables on top of burger. At salt, pepper, ketchup to taste. Devour. Repeat.
