Olive oil is healthier for frying.

Heat oil in a frying pan and add butter, salt, and cracked black pepper.

Cook onions until soft and golden, about 10-15 minutes.

In a bowl, mix ground beef with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Form the beef into a patty that fits the bread slice.

Heat oil in the frying pan and cook the patty for about 2-2.5 minutes on each side until fully cooked.

Butter one side of each slice of bread.

In the pan, place buttered side down, add two slices of red Leicester cheese, the cooked patty, caramelized onions, and two more slices of cheese on top.

Cover with another slice of bread, buttered side up, and cook on low to medium heat until the bread toasts, about a few minutes.

Flip the sandwich carefully and cook until golden brown on both sides.

Slice the sandwich in half and serve.
