Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Cut your potatoes (skins on) into fries and add them to a baking tray (or two!)
Strip your rosemary off their stems, then chop them as finely as possible and discard the stems
Combine the chopped rosemary with a pinch of salt – this is your rosemary salt
Sprinkle the rosemary salt over the fries with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of pepper and mix it all together
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 20-25 min or until crisp, golden and cooked through – these are your rosemary salted fries
While the fries are cooking, add your lean beef mince to a bowl with your panko breadcrumbs and Henderson's Relish
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, mix it all together (clean hands is the best way!), then shape into 1 burger patty per person
Add a light covering of vegetable oil to a separate baking tray (use kitchen paper to spread it evenly!), then add the lean burger patty[ies] and your smoked streaky bacon
Tip: Cooking for 3 or more? Use 2 trays!
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 15-20 min or until the burger is cooked through (no pink meat!) and the bacon is crispy
While the burger is cooking, combine your mustard ketchup, mayo and tomato ketchup in a bowl – this is your burger sauce
Grate your cheddar cheese
Slice your brioche bun[s] in half (if required!)
Wash your lettuce and pat dry with kitchen paper, then remove 1 whole outer leaf per person and set aside for serving
Chop the remaining lettuce into quarters, then add to a bowl and toss with a drizzle of olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper – these are your dressed lettuce wedges
Once the burger is almost done, top the patty with the grated cheese and return the tray[s] to the oven for 3 min or until the cheese has melted – this is your lean cheeseburger patty
Heat a large, dry, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) over a medium heat and add the brioche bun halves, cut side down, and cook for 3 min or until toasted and charred
Tip: Cooking for 3 or more? You may need to do this in 2 batches!
To build, spread a little burger sauce onto the toasted brioche base, then pile up with a lettuce leaf, a lean cheeseburger patty, crispy bacon and top with the toasted brioche lid – this is your ultimate bacon cheeseburger
Serve the ultimate bacon cheeseburger with the rosemary salted fries, dressed lettuce wedges and any remaining burger sauce to the side
Enjoy!
