Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm fries. Place the fries on an oven tray lined with baking paper and sprinkle with the paprika spice blend (see ingredients). Season with salt and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat, then bake until tender, 25-30 minutes.
TIP: Cut the potato to size so it cooks in time.
While the fries are baking, thinly slice the brown onion. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the onion, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar, water and brown sugar and mix well. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.
Thinly slice the tomato. Shred the cos lettuce leaves. In a large bowl, combine the beef mince, All-American spice blend, fine breadcrumbs (see ingredients), the salt and egg, then season with pepper. Mix well and shape the beef mixture into evenly sized patties slightly larger than a burger bun. You should get 1 patty per bun.
Wash and dry the frying pan and return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, cook the beef patties until cooked through, 4-5 minutes each side. In the last 1-2 minutes of cook time, sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese over the patties and cover with a lid so the cheese melts.
While the burgers are cooking, place the bake-athome burger buns on a wire rack in the oven for 3 minutes, or until heated through.
Slice the burger buns in half. Spread each burger bun with BBQ mayonnaise and top with a beef patty, caramelised onion, tomato and cos lettuce. Serve with the paprika fries.
