Recipe from 'Simply Jamie' Cookbook
Smash Burger
When only a burger will do, this smash-&-cook method will have you covered for a fast filthy fix.
Serves: 1
Total time: 12 min
Ingredients
- 1/4 of a small onion
- 125g beef mince
- 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 1 burger bun
- tomato ketchup
- 2 gherkins
- American mustard, to serve
- 1 tomato
- 1 handful of mixed salad leaves
Method
- Peel the onion, very finely slice into rounds, then break into rings and cook in a large
non-stick frying pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil for a few minutes, stirring regularly, then push to one side of the pan. - Squash the minced meat into a rough pattie about 1/2cm thick and a bit bigger than your bun and place in the pan. Season with black pepper and the Cajun seasoning,
then move the onion rings on top and use a fish slice to really smash the
onions into the meat. - Cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until gnarly and cooked through, toasting the halved bun alongside for a minute.
- Spread the bun base with ketchup, sit the burger on top, slice and layer over 1 gherkin,
squeeze over mustard to your liking, and pop the lid on. - Slice the tomato and remaining gherkin to serve on the side with the salad leaves, or stuff it
all into your bun, the choice is yours.
