]]> Smoky burger with spicy bell pepper salsa, roasted garlic mayonnaise https://oldamsterdam.com/us/recipes/smokey-burger/ Tue, 30 Sep 2025 12:54:38 +0000 https://oldamsterdamnl.hosting-cluster.nl/us/?post_type=recepten&p=734

How to make it:

  1. Preheat the oven or BBQ to 200°C.
  2. Place the bell pepper and garlic on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (if using the oven) and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the bell pepper and garlic in the oven or on the BBQ for 20-25 minutes, checking occasionally to see if the garlic has caramelized and softened (if so, remove it). Allow to cool for a few minutes.
  3. Mix the bacon with the ground beef and season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Divide the ground beef into 4 flat patties, larger than the buns (the meat shrinks during cooking).
  4. Clean the bell peppers by removing the skin and seeds. Finely chop them, mix with the tomato tapenade, sambal, and Worcestershire sauce to taste. Finish with salt and freshly ground pepper.
  5. Now squeeze the garlic cloves and mix the roasted garlic with the mayonnaise and plenty of freshly ground pepper. Cook the burgers on the BBQ or in a frying pan for 4-5 minutes until done, place 1.5 slices of Old Amsterdam cheese on each burger and melt for approx. 30 seconds.
  6. Spread the bottom half of the burger buns generously with bell pepper salsa. Top the buns with the burger, lettuce, and pickled onions. Spread the top half with garlic mayonnaise and close the buns.

Cooking tip!

After cooking, let the burger rest for a few minutes under foil. This helps retain the juices and allows the Old Amsterdam cheese to melt beautifully over the meat.

]]> Croquettes with Curry & Tarragon Mayonnaise https://oldamsterdam.com/us/recipes/croquettes-curry-tarragon/ Tue, 30 Sep 2025 12:53:59 +0000 https://oldamsterdamnl.hosting-cluster.nl/us/?post_type=recepten&p=747

How to make it:

  1. Soak the gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pan and add 100 g flour. Heat the mixture over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring regularly. Pour in half of the milk and stir with a whisk. Add the rest of the milk when the sauce begins to thicken.
  2. Separate half of the eggs. Add the egg yolks and whipping cream to the sauce and bring to a boil. Set aside the egg whites. Remove the pan from the heat and stir the cheese into the sauce in batches. Squeeze out the gelatin sheets and stir them into the sauce. Season the sauce with mustard, curry powder, and pepper.
  3. Grease the baking dish and sprinkle with some flour. Pour the ragout into the baking dish, cover with plastic wrap, and let cool for 30 minutes. Let set in the refrigerator for another 2 hours.
  4. Use 2 soup spoons to scoop out equal portions of the croquette mixture. Dust your hands with flour and shape the mixture into croquettes. Beat the rest of the eggs with the reserved egg whites in a deep plate. Put the rest of the flour, breadcrumbs, and panko in separate deep plates. Dip the croquettes in the flour mixture, egg mixture, and breadcrumbs, in that order. Repeat this so that the croquettes are double-breaded, but this time only dip them in the egg mixture and breadcrumbs.
  5. Cover the croquettes with cling film and leave them to set in the refrigerator for another 2 hours.
  6. Heat the deep fryer to 180 °C and fry a maximum of 4 croquettes at a time for about 5 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

Double bread the croquettes (flour, egg, and breadcrumbs twice) for an extra crispy crust that stays on better during frying.
