Preparation:

    Step 1
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the sausage, adding it in batches, until crispy, about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels.
  • Step 2
  • Add the mushrooms to the same pan and cook, without stirring, until browned, about 2 minutes. Stir and continue cooking until softened, about 5 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Step 3
  • Form the minced meat into four round patties, each weighing 160 grams and about 2 cm thick. Using your thumb, make a 1/2-inch (1.2 mm) indentation in the center of each patty. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly oil the grill grates, place the patties on the grates, indented side down, and cook until charred, about 5 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until slightly firm, about 3 minutes more. The patties will be medium-rare. Transfer the patties to a platter and let them rest for 5 minutes. Place the buns, cut side down, on the grill and cook until golden brown, about 1 minute.
  • Step 4
  • In a bowl, combine the arugula with balsamic vinegar, add olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Spread the ricotta over the bottom halves of the buns, top with the patties, salami, mushrooms, and arugula. Top with the remaining bun halves. Serve with French fries, if you want to remember the classic taste of fast food.
