Method
-
step 1
Mix the burger sauce ingredients and leave to sit at room temperature while you prepare everything else.
-
step 2
Mix the vinegar and sugar then add the red onions with a pinch of salt and chilli flakes, if using, and toss.
-
step 3
Put the mince, onion, garlic salt, paprika, egg yolk and lots of pepper in a bowl. Mix together well using clean hands, then form into 8 balls. Squash each one into a really flat patty. Heat a large frying pan, griddle or BBQ to hot. Oil the patties then sear for 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
-
step 4
To build the tacos, add some lettuce to each tortilla then break up a patty into chunks and sit on top. Add some cheese, pickled onions and burger sauce.
