Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Chop the potatoes into 1cm slices, then into 1cm chips (no need to peel).
- Pop onto a lined baking tray and toss with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of oil.
- Spread out in a single layer then roast on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through cooking.
2
- Meanwhile, quarter the apple (no need to peel) and remove the core and seeds. Thinly slice one-half and coarsely grate the other.
- Trim the cucumber then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into 2cm pieces.
- To make your dressing, squeeze the juice of half a lemon (double for 4p) into a large bowl for the salad.
- Add a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix together and set aside.
3
- Add the grated apple to a separate bowl along with the pork mince, half the mustard (double for 4P) and breadcrumbs.
- Season with a large pinch of salt and pepper and mix everything together by hand until well combined.
- Form the mixture into evenly-sized burgers (one per person). IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat.
TIP: The burgers will shrink a little when cooked.
4
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once the pan is hot, lay in the burgers and fry until cooked through and browned on each side, 12-14 mins total.
- Turn every 3-4 mins. IMPORTANT: Burgers are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
5
- Once cooked, pop the cheese on top of the burgers, pressing it down gently so it adheres, then reduce the heat to low.
- Add a splash of water to the pan then cover with a lid or some foil.
- Allow the cheese to melt, 2-3 mins, then remove from the heat.
- Meanwhile, pop the buns into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.
6
- Add the sliced apple, cucumber, salad leaves and walnuts to the bowl with the dressing and toss to coat.
- Spread a little ketchup over the cut side of each bun.
- Place a burger on each base bun then sandwich closed with the top bun.
- Serve your burgers with salad and chips alongside.
