On a really hot, greased griddle, put down very thinly sliced onions for two of the burgers, put the meat on top, and smash down with a piece of parchment on top so it does not stick.
Cook until halfway done.
  • regular frozen fries

  • oil
Flip the burgers once halfway cooked; they slide off easily if the griddle is well greased.

Drain the golden fries and season with salt.
