Cooking Steps

Bake the fries
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut sweet potato into fries. • Place fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.

2

• Thinly slice brown onion. • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine beef mince, fine breadcrumbs, the egg, tomato & herb seasoning and a pinch of salt.

TIP: If you added sliced onion, no need to prep — save the whole one for another meal!

3

• Shape beef mixture into evenly sized patties (1 per person) slightly larger than your burger buns. Transfer to a plate.

Cook the patties
4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook beef patties until almost cooked through, 4-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Transfer beef patties to a second lined oven tray. Sprinkle over Cheddar cheese. • Bake until patties are cooked through and cheese is melted, 3-4 minutes.

5

• Meanwhile, halve bake-at-home burger buns and bake directly on a wire oven rack until heated through, 2-3 minutes.

6

• Spread each burger base with creamy pesto dressing. Top with a cheesy beef patty and mixed salad leaves. • Serve with sweet potato fries. Enjoy!
