CHECKER BURGER WITH CHEESE RECIPES

Steps:

• Remove your grill pan and turn the grill on to its highest setting. Put the mince in a bowl and break it up with a fork, add the soy sauce, herbs and two twists of black pepper. Mix well.
• Divide into four burgers. Cut the cheese into four cubes and press a cube into the middle of each burger. Push the mince over to cover the cheese.
• Use a paper towel to wipe sunflower oil over the rack of your grill pan. Place the burgers on the grill pan and cook for seven minutes, changing the grill setting to medium. Then flip the burgers over with a fish slice and cook for a further seven minutes making sure they do not go too brown. Medium cooked burgers will feel springy and well done ones will feel firm.
• Serve in a seeded bun with chips and salad.

Steps:

• Crumble the mince in a large bowl, then tip in the breadcrumbs, cheese, Worcestershire sauce, parsley and eggs with 1 tsp ground pepper and 1-2 tsp salt. Mix with your hands to combine everything thoroughly.
• Shape the mix into 12 burgers. Chill until ready to cook for up to 24 hrs. Or freeze for up to 3 months. Just stack between squares of baking parchment to stop the burgers sticking together, then wrap well. Defrost overnight in the fridge before cooking.
• To cook the burgers, heat grill to high. Grill burgers for 6-8 mins on each side until cooked through. Meanwhile, warm as many buns as you need in a foil-covered tray below the grilling burgers. Let everyone assemble their own, served with their favourite accompaniments.
