Classic homemade burger

Ingredients

• ½ tbsp olive oil
• 1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
• 1 x 500g pack British Beef Steak Mince 15% fat
• 1 tsp mixed dried herbs
• 1 egg, beaten
• 4 slices mature Cheddar (optional)
• 4 white rolls
• few round lettuce leaves, torn
• 1 beef tomato, sliced
• ketchup, to serve (optional)

Method

1. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened and starting to turn golden. Set aside.
2. In a bowl, combine the beef mince with the herbs and the egg. Season, add the onions and mix well. Using your hands, shape into 4 patties.
3. Cook the burgers on a preheated barbecue or griddle for 5-6 minutes on each side. While the second side is cooking, lay a slice of cheese on top to melt slightly (if using).
4. Meanwhile, lightly toast the cut-sides of the buns on the barbecue. Fill with the lettuce, burgers and tomato slices. Serve with ketchup, if you like.
