I've never seen anyone cook it like that beforeThere was an Azerbaijani chap with whom I used to share a kitchen with in the halls of residence at uni called Amin.
He didn’t speak particularly good English so the vast majority of our conversations were a simple hello and a smile.
Over the year we saw some pretty bizarre behaviour. At first we tried to put him right, but because of the language barrier it was often difficult to convey your point, so we tended to let the little things slide and leave him to get on with it.
To this day, I’ve never known anyone cook a burger like Amin.
You try telling Borats cousin that you are supposed to put tomato ketchup on your birdseye quarter-pounders AFTER you have grilled them for 20 minutes.
He’d just smile and nod, give us a friendly “Hello, yes!” and get on with it.

Looking back I kinda feel that we could have been a bit more helpful to the poor guy instead of being a bunch of pricks and laughing about it.
