Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large (200g) brown onion, sliced
  • 4 burger buns, split
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 4 iceberg lettuce leaves, shredded
  • 2 small (90g each) ripe tomatoes
  • 225g can sliced beetroot, drained
  • purchased tomato sauce, to serve
  • beef patties
  • ¾ cup (50g) fresh breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 500g beef mince
  • 1 medium (150g) brown onion,
  • coarsely grated
  • 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons purchased tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Preparation method

Beef patties
Place breadcrumbs in a medium bowl; pour milk over. Add mince, onion, parsley and sauces. Season with salt and pepper. Use your hands to mix until well combined.

Divide the mixture into 4 even portions and shape each portion into a patty about 10cm in diameter and 2cm thick (see Shaping Your Patties, right).

Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat until hot and cook the onion for 8 minutes or until softened. Remove from pan and set aside. Heat remaining oil and add the Beef Patties and cook for 5 minutes each side or until just cooked through. Meanwhile, preheat grill on high. Place the burger buns, cut-side up, on an oven tray and toast under preheated grill for
1-2 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside.

To serve, place a cheese slice over each patty and place pan under preheated grill for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts. Top bottom halves of buns with lettuce, tomato, beetroot, Beef Patties, tomato sauce and onion. Cover with bun tops.
