Ingredients

– **For the Filling:**

– 1 lb (450g) ground beef

– ½ cup caramelized onions, finely chopped (or use caramelized onion relish)

– ½ cup pickles, finely chopped

– 1 cup cheddar cheese, finely diced or grated

– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

– 1 teaspoon fish sauce

– 1 teaspoon salt

– Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

– **For the Flatbreads:**

– 4 flatbreads or pita pockets (adjust quantity based on size)

– **For Pan-Frying:**

– 2 tablespoons olive oil

– **Optional Burger Sauce for Dipping:**

– ½ cup Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise)

– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

– 1 tablespoon ketchup

– 1 garlic clove, crushed (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder)

– 3 pickle slices, finely chopped

– 1 teaspoon pickle juice (or white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar)

– 2 teaspoons smoked paprika

Instructions

1. **Prepare the Filling:**

– In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped caramelized onions, chopped pickles, diced or grated cheddar cheese, Dijon mustard, fish sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. For enhanced flavor, consider pan-frying a small portion of the filling to test and adjust seasoning if necessary.

 

2. **Prepare the Flatbreads:**

– Carefully slice each flatbread in half to create pockets. Gently open them up, being cautious not to tear. If using larger flatbreads, you can cut them into quarters for smaller servings.

 

3. **Assemble the Flatbreads:**

– Stuff each flatbread pocket with the cheeseburger filling, ensuring an even distribution. Do not overfill to prevent spillage during cooking.

 

4. **Pan-Fry the Flatbreads:**

– Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

– Place the stuffed flatbreads in the skillet and cook until the exterior turns golden brown and crispy, approximately 3-4 minutes per side. Avoid overcrowding; cook in batches if necessary.

 

5. **Serve:**

– Slice the flatbreads into desired portions.

– Serve warm with the optional burger sauce on the side for dipping.

 

Notes

– **Variations:** Customize your flatbreads by adding lettuce, tomato slices, or other preferred burger toppings before sealing. For a spicier kick, consider adding jalapeños or a drizzle of your favorite hot sauce.

– **Storage:** Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat to restore crispiness.

– **Dietary Adjustments:** For a lighter version, use lean ground turkey or plant-based meat alternatives. To make the recipe gluten-free, ensure the flatbreads are made from gluten-free flour.
