• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 ⅕ kg (2 lb 10 oz) washed potatoes (any variety), peeled or unpeeled, cut into cubes (approximately 2 cm/¾ inch)

2 tsp sea salt flakes

¼ tsp cracked black pepper

4 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, finely diced

500 g (1 lb 2 oz) lean minced (ground) beef (see note 1 for turkey and chicken)

1 tsp sea salt flakes

1 tsp sweet paprika

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp garlic powder

¼ tsp cracked black pepper

1 cup (250 g) whole-egg mayonnaise

2 tbsp finely chopped gherkins (dill pickles)

1 tsp dijon mustard

1 tbsp ketchup

1 tsp sweet paprika

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1–2 tbsp water

1 large cos (romaine) lettuce, cut into strips

½ cup (60 g) shredded cheddar or any other burger cheese

200 g (7 oz) cherry tomatoes, halved

½ red onion, finely sliced

¼ cup (45 g) sliced gherkins (dill pickles)

Directions

Potatoes

Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F) (200°C/400°F fan-forced).

Place the potatoes in a large baking dish so that they are evenly spread out (use two baking dishes, if required, to ensure the potatoes are not overlapping). Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat.

Bake for 40 minutes or until crisp and golden, turning once halfway through.

Beef

Heat the olive oil in a large, deep, heavy-based frying pan over medium–high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 1–2 minutes until softened.

Add the beef and cook for 4–5 minutes or until it’s starting to brown, breaking up the beef as you go.

Add the remaining beef ingredients and cook for a further minute. Set aside.

Combine the burger sauce ingredients, except the water, in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until your desired consistency is reached.

Divide the lettuce among four bowls. Top with the baked potatoes, beef and shredded cheese, followed by the cherry tomatoes, red onion and gherkin. Drizzle with the burger sauce and serve.
