Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into fries. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes. • In the last 5 minutes of cook time, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over fries, then bake until golden and crispy, 5 minutes. • Meanwhile, thinly slice tomato.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.
• While fries are baking, combine beef mince, garlic paste, fine breadcrumbs, Nan's special seasoning and egg. Season with salt and pepper. • Shape beef mixture into evenly sized patties (one per person), slightly larger than the burger buns. Transfer to a plate. • When fries have 15 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook the patties until just cooked through, 4-5 minutes each side.
• While patties are cooking, combine a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a medium bowl. Season, then add mixed salad leaves. Toss to coat. • When patties have 3 minutes remaining, place bake-at-home burger buns directly on wire rack in the oven. Bake until heated through, 3 minutes.
• Slice burger buns in half, then spread the bases with creamy pesto dressing. Top with a beef patty, tomato slices and salad. • Serve with Parmesan fries.
