Step 1
1. Peel and finely chop the onion. Cut the sun-dried tomatoes into pieces. Slice the buns in half and toast the cut sides in a toaster or oven until golden. In a bowl, combine the ground meat, onion, egg, tomatoes, cumin, and cayenne pepper, and mix thoroughly with your hands. Divide the mixture into 4 portions and shape into round patties. Press them well so they don't fall apart during cooking. For better results, chill the patties in the refrigerator for an hour before cooking. Preheat the grill to medium heat. Grill the patties for 5–8 minutes on each side. Then increase the grill heat to high, place a slice of cheese on each patty, sprinkle lightly with cayenne pepper, and grill for another 2 minutes.
