Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ Gas 6
Cut the potatoes (skins on) into chunky chips, then strip the rosemary leaves from their stalks and chop them roughly
Add the chips to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil, a generous pinch of both salt and pepper and sprinkle over the chopped rosemary
Put the tray in the oven for 25-30 min or until golden

Meanwhile, peel and chop the shallot[s] finely
Add the chopped shallot to a bowl with the beef mince and a pinch of salt and pepper
Give everything a very good mix up until fully combined (clean hands is the best way!)

Divide the beef into 2 [4] and shape into patties
Cut the cheddar into 8 [16] pieces
Top the middle of each patty with 4 pieces of cheddar, seal them in with the beef (make sure there are no gaps) – these are your cheese-stuffed patties
Add the cheese-stuffed patties to an oiled baking tray
Put the tray in the oven for 15-20 min or until cooked through (no pink meat!)

Meanwhile, cut the tomato[es] into small, bite-sized pieces
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
Heat a pot with 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] olive oil over a medium heat
Once hot, add the chopped tomatoes with a pinch of salt and cook them for 2-3 min
Add the chopped garlic and tomato paste and cook for 1 min further

Add the balsamic vinegar, 50ml [100ml] water and 2 tsp [4 tsp] sugar and bring to the boil
Cook for 4-5 min or until the tomatoes have broken down and the sauce is the consistency of ketchup
Once thickened, remove from the heat – this is your homemade ketchup

Cut the ciabatta roll[s] in half
Once the burgers have 3-4 min left, add the ciabatta to the tray and return the tray to the oven until hot and crusty
Wash the baby leaf salad, then pat it dry with kitchen paper

Meanwhile, chop the basil roughly, including the stalks
Add the chopped basil to a pestle & mortar with a pinch of salt and grind to a paste
Add 1-2 tbsp more olive oil and mix to combine – this is your basil oil
In a separate bowl, combine the white wine vinegar with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your dressing

Serve the cheesy patties over the toasted ciabatta with the rosemary chips and salad to the side
Drizzle the baby leaf salad with the dressing
Spoon the basil oil and homemade ketchup over the patties
Enjoy!
