Cooking Time : 45 Minute

Ingredients

• meat mince (around 10% fat) 400g
• onion 1 small, grated
• garlic salt 1 tsp
• oil for frying
• mayonnaise to serve
• brioche-style burger buns 4, toasted and ground
• soft lettuce leaves
• red onion slices to serve
• gherkin slices to serve

JALAPEÑO RAREBIT

• butter 25g
• plain flour 25g
• Mexican lager 150ml
• American mustard 1 tbsp
• cheddar 100g, grated
• pickled jalapeño 2 tbsp, chopped

Method

• STEP 1

  To make the rarebit mixture, melt the butter in a pan and stir in the flour. Cook over low heat for 4-5 minutes until the mixture is light-straw colored.

• STEP 2

  Gradually add the lager until you have a smooth sauce. Stir in the mustard then add the cheddar and stir until melted.

• STEP 3

  Stir in the jalapeños. Pour into a clingfilm- or baking paper-lined 18cm x 18cm tin, spread out evenly and put in the fridge. When completely set and cold, cut into 4 squares.

• STEP 4

  To make the burgers, put the mince, onion and garlic salt in a bowl. Season with pepper and mix well then divide into four balls. Use a spatula to smash each into a rough patty.

• STEP 5

  Heat a large, heavy frying pan to hot. Oil one side of the patties then put them into the pan, oiled-side down. Cook for 2 minutes, on each side, squashing them flat as you go.

• STEP 6

  Put a rarebit slice on each and grill on high for 2-3 minutes until bubbling.

• STEP 7

  Spread mayo on each burger bun base then add lettuce and onion. Sit a burger on top then add the pickles and bun top.
