Ingredients
- beef mince 500g
- Worcestershire sauce
- Dijon mustard 1 tsp
- garlic salt 1/2 tsp
- cheese slices 4
- oil for frying
- little gem lettuce 1, shredded
- large tomato 1, sliced to serve
- burger buns 4, toasted
- red onion 1 small, sliced
- sliced gherkin to serve
Method
-
Step 1
Put the mince in a bowl and add a splash of Worcestershire sauce, the mustard, garlic salt and a good grind of pepper. Mix well with clean hands then divide into 4 balls.
-
Step 2
Take each ball, divide in two, then shape into thin patties. The easiest way to do this is to put the balls between clingfilm and use a pan to press into a flat patty. Make them bigger than your bun as they will shrink when you cook them.
-
Step 3
Cut a cheese slice into 4, then stack them in the middle of a patty. Put the other patty on top then pat down and pinch the edges so the cheese is completely enclosed. Repeat with the other burgers.
-
Step 4
Heat a large, non-stick frying pan. Oil and season the burgers then add to the pan and fry for 4 minutes each side.
-
Step 5
Put some lettuce and tomato on the base of each bun. Sit the burgers on top, then add onion and gherkins to finish.
