Ingredients
Special Sauce
|
|
- In a large bowl combine mince, garlic and carrot, season with salt and pepper to taste. Mould the mince mix into 6 even burger patties, using your hands press the patties firmly together to avoid them from falling apart during cooking.
- Heat a frying pan on a medium- high heat, spray with cooking oil spray.
- Add beef patties to one side of the pan, reserving enough room for sliced onion, if you need to you can use a separate frying pan from the onion.
- While beef patties are cooking, make the special sauce by combining gherkins and greek yogurt in a blender or food processor, blitz for 1 minute or until gherkins are well blended. Add mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, onion powder and garlic powder, blitz again for 1 minute until well combined, place the special sauce into the freezer for 5 minutes to thicken.
- Turn beef patties and stir onion.
- While the patties are cooking, start to assemble the burgers.
- Slice the burger buns in half, add lettuce and tomato slices.
- Once beef patties are cooked turn off heat and top each beef pattie with a slice of cheese, so the cheese starts to slightly melt.
- Add beef patties, onion and a large dollop of special sauce to each burger.
- This recipe makes 6 serves.
