    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 :)

      5kg is great :) I lost 12kg (from 96 to 84) in a year, which also doesn't sound like a lot but it's the first time I managed to lose any weight and I did it the healthy way, eating foods I like, just creating them with low fat and more vegetables. Btw just walking 7-10 000 steps a day is enough workout to lose weight.

      How tall you are, how much you weighed before, if you're lifting weights, there's many variables
      The less you weigh, the harder it becomes to lose weight
      5kg is a good start, specially if you're not having difficulty with diet and feeling comfortable eating new things

    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).

      He's making a joke with the wording by making a point of taking a usually unhealthy meal and making it actually healthy. Break down each component and it's actually fine. It sounds like you are the type of person that would say a burrito bowl is healthy but burgers isn't even if they contain the same thing. No offense

      @@TheSilverwing999 I think something got lost in translation. My comment was a genuine compliment on how Felu approaches the topic of healthy meals. Because usual diets need you to abandon what you know and love for completely different, healthier meals. Felu on the other hand takes the meals you know and love, and he makes them healthy. Following Felu's recipes is like "having your cake, and eat it, too." I'm genuinely amazed.

      To be honest it's not that crazy when you break down what is the highest amount of calories per some weight. Things like animal fat, ketchup, cheese, rice, mayonnaise, sugary coffee, etc come to mind. Dieting is easier if you can reduce all of these as much as possible or find some alternative. Why can a turkey burger be better than a beef burger? It comes down to the fat content and all the extra crap that's put on it. Same with yogurt, great when there isn't 40g of sugar in it.

    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 got a question...
    Im currently back to training, got a new workout plan 4 times a week, everythin alright so far. My goal is to gain weight rather than losing weight as these recipes imply. At the same time, i want to get my protein intake to around 160g a day to build muscle obviously. My question is, can i just increase the portions i eat from these recipes to have a high protein intake and still have enough calorie intake to gain weight or does that not add up? Or in other words, are these recipes still any good, if im currently trying to get bigger and not leaner?

    • @andrewchqr893
      @andrewchqr893 3 місяці тому

      Yea, in my experience they are great for gaining muscle as well. You can either increase the overall portion for a big amount of protein or increase only the carbs (fries, noodles, rice etc.) as the recipes usually already come with a lot of protein

    The chips will be better if you let them cool after par boiling then give them a lift shake in the bowl to get rough edges, add some polenta to the seasoning mix and bake at 180 rather than 200 to get a better texture. 200 often burns the outside without cooking the inside and results in a less fluffy product
