An Australian cafe is claiming a world record after cooking a giant hamburger with an 81 kg (178 lb) patty that took 12 hours to cook and four men to flip. The monster burger cooked up by Sydney cafe owners, Joe and Iman El-Ajouz, weighed in at 90 kg in total, eclipsing the previous record of 84 kg, set in Michigan in the United States. "Just flipping the patty was the main challenge for us, but it all went well," Iman El-Ajouz told the reporters. "My husband had to prepare special metal holders and a metal plate, he had one at the bottom one at the top, locked them together and they flipped the burger with that," she added. The giant burger contained the giant beef patty, 120 eggs, 150 slices of cheese, 1.5 kg of beetroot, 2.5 kg of tomatoes and almost 2 kg of lettuce all topped off with a special sauce on a giant sesame seed bun. It was eaten by employees at the cafe. The variety of burger will be on the menu at the cafe for the next year in order to meet the conditions for a Guinness world record, but will set hungry patrons back around A$1,500 ($1,220).

澳大利亞一家餐廳日前做出了世界上最大的漢堡,這個漢堡的肉餅重達81公斤(合178磅),制作耗時12個小時,光是肉餅翻面就需要四個人一起完成。 這個巨無霸漢堡由悉尼一家餐廳的老板喬和伊曼·埃爾-阿朱茲夫婦制作而成,總重達90公斤,打破了之前美國密歇根州84公斤漢堡王的紀(jì)錄。 伊曼·埃爾-阿朱茲告訴記者:“對于我們來說,最大的挑戰(zhàn)其實就是肉餅翻面,但整個制作過程還算順利?!?/p> 她說:“為制作這個漢堡,我丈夫特地準(zhǔn)備了特制的金屬支架和一個金屬托盤,分別放在肉餅的底部和上面,扣牢之后幾個人一起來給它翻面?!?/p> 這個漢堡的兩面是兩片巨大的芝麻面包,中間夾了一塊巨大的牛肉肉餅,此外還用了120個雞蛋、150片奶酪、1.5公斤甜菜根、2.5公斤西紅柿和近2公斤生菜,另外還用了一種特制的調(diào)味醬。餐廳的雇員們一同分享了這個大漢堡。 為滿足世界吉尼斯紀(jì)錄的申請條件,這家餐廳將于明年將這種巨無霸漢堡列在菜單上,但它的售價高達1500澳元(1220美元),可能會讓食客們望而卻步。 相關(guān)閱讀 (中國日報網(wǎng)英語點津 Julie 編輯蔡姍姍) |
