Posting images of her delicious burgers to the Homemade McDonald's Facebook group, which currently has more than 26,700 members, the woman wrote: 'I think I may [have] wasted a lot of my life on making Big Macs'. 

As Australians love a classic Big Mac, the woman was praised for sharing the recipe online with some asking if she made the burger buns herself too – which she sometimes does.

To make the replica fast food burgers, the woman seasoned 500 grams of mince beef with salt and pepper and formed large but flat meat patties.

'Big Mac burgers are large and flat and shrink when fried so always go a bit bigger than the bun,' the woman said.

'I do it by eye but if you want to measure each one I think it's about 45 grams.'

To make the sauce, she combined one cup of mayonnaise with garlic powder, onion powder, gherkin relish, white wine vinegar, yellow mustard, smoked paprika and and a pinch of salt.
