It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that zing. We’re pretty sure that’s what Ella and Duke would’ve said about these “jazzed-up” burgers (pun intended!). Just imagine juicy beef patties topped with gooey gouda cheese, and savory sautéed mushrooms—all on fluffy potato buns spread with a creamy horseradish sauce that really makes these gourmet burgers, ahem... sing!

Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
• While potatoes roast, trim and thinly slice mushrooms. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until browned and tender, 5-7 minutes. • Turn off heat; transfer to a plate.
• While mushrooms cook, in a large bowl, combine beef*, salt (we used ½ tsp; 1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Form into two patties (four patties for 4), each slightly wider than a burger bun. Season with salt and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for mushrooms over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side. • In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with gouda; cover pan to melt cheese.
• While burgers cook, halve buns; place, cut sides up, directly on oven rack. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. • Spread toasted buns with horseradish sauce. Fill with patties and mushrooms. Divide burgers between plates. Serve with potato wedges on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
Any burger with gouda cheese and mushrooms is already gonna make it next level but the particular type of ground beef that Hellofresh uses for hamburgers etc. is nothing short of amazing. On this recipe, it's the toasted potato buns that brings it to a complete, perfect finish!
These were amazing!!! Love the flavor pairings of the mushrooms and Gouda with just enough kick from the horseradish sauce without being overly spicy. My only true feedback is and will always be abt the buns. Not a fan. They are just too thick and not soft.
This was probably the easiest meal to prepare yet! And it was so good! The hamburger cooked perfectly. The combination of mushrooms, garlic, gouda and horseradish dressing was the best! Thank you! Oh, and we love the potato bread. It wouldn't be the same without it.
The horseradish cream sauce was amazing on this burger!! I only put a little to try it (skeptical), and I went back and poured it all over my bun. Everyone love this meal. I did have to *add oven time* to the potato wedges. I cut it thin, but it still required an addition 10 minutes (gas oven) to ensure the wedges were soft inside and crispy outside. Not a big deal, small delay with small humans smelling the tasty lunch and jumping around in excitement. Overall, this is going in our recipe binder! Thanks!
I can't believe I loved this meal as much as I did. As someone who hates mushrooms, I was actually pleasantly surprised by how good this meal tasted overall. Every bite into the burger had zingy flavor that I just couldn't get enough of until the meal was done! It was perfectly portioned, it as delicious, what more can you ask from a burger? I hope I can get more of this soon!
I added onion to the sauteed mushrooms, we loved the horseradish sauce on the burger, so much that we bought a bottle next day at the store. This was a great burger. Cooked to potatoes in my ninja foodi air fryer since it was 95 degrees out & we don't have ac. Really enjoyed this.
The flavors in this burger were really good. A simple preparation resulted in a nice complex flavors profile that was delicious. Although the horseradish sauce was missing, I think it would have created when more depth of flavor. If you have an air fryer, do the wedges in that for more consistent crispiness. Great meal!
THAT HORSEY SAUCE IS AMAZING! I cooked out a little different from the recipe. Instead of fries, I made "home fries" (aka hashbrowns) and we rested the burger atop of the home fries and stuck the cheese between the layers. Drizzled w/ the horsey sauce. We also added diced onions in with the tators and mushrooms :)
Delicious burgers. Needed way more cheese, thankfully I had a wedge of gouda. Mushroom was overpowering so the extra cheese helped. My husband enjoyed the horseradish and I mixed it with kethcup which was actually delicious with the burger.
The burger and fries were fine, but the horseradish sauce was extremely weak - it certainly wasn't zesty - and didn't add anything to the dish. The mushrooms didn't stay on the burger well at all and were more of a nuisance. The gouda + weak horseradish sauce + mushroom combo isn't very good.
