CHEESEBURGER WITH ONION RINGS

Preparation time less than 30 mins

Cooking time 10 to 30 mins

Ingredients

FOR THE BURGER

200g/7oz beef fillet, chopped

1 garlic clove, chopped

25g/1oz fresh breadcrumbs

1 egg

salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 tbsp olive oil

50g/2oz goats' cheese

handful fresh rocket

2 slices toasted ciabatta

FOR THE ONION RINGS

200ml/7fl oz vegetable oil, for deep frying

50g/2oz cornflour

25g/1oz plain flour

3 tbsp sparkling water

1 onion, peeled, cut into thick rings

METHOD

For the burger, place the beef, garlic, breadcrumbs and egg into a small food processor, season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper and blend until well combined.

Remove the mixture from the food processor and shape into a large pattie, using your hands.

Heat a griddle pan and brush it with oil. Place the burger into the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking.

Remove the burger from the pan and set aside in a warm place.

In the same pan, fry the goats' cheese for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown.

For the onion rings, place the vegetable oil into a deep, heavy-bottomed saucepan and heat until a small cube of bread sizzles and turns golden when dropped into it.

Place the cornflour, plain flour and sparkling water into a bowl and whisk together to make a light batter. Dip the onion rings into this mixture to coat.

Carefully place the onion rings into the hot oil and deep fry for 3-4 minutes, or until golden-brown and crisp. Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.

To serve, place the burger onto a slice of toasted ciabatta and top with the rocket and goats' cheese and the remaining slice of ciabatta, with the onion rings alongside.
