Gourmet cheeseburgers with coleslaw

Home-made burger patties beat the socks off the store-bought variety. Here's how to make your very own meaty burger patties from scratch.

burgers

cheese

Ingredients

500g extra-lean free-range minced beef

2 tbsp chopped coriander

½ finely chopped onion

1 tbsp Dijon mustard

1 free-range egg yolk

Salt and black pepper

1 tbsp olive oil

grated gruyére cheese

2 tbsp chutney

2 tbsp tomato sauce

2 tbsp mayonnaise

4 lightly toasted bread rolls

1 finely sliced red onion

fresh rocket leaves

For the coleslaw:

2 peeled and grated medium carrots

1 shredded baby cabbage

1 small red onion

1 tbsp mayonnaise

1-2 tbsp low-fat plain yoghurt

Salt and black pepper

Method

Place the mince, coriander, onion,  mustard and egg in a bowl and season  to taste. Mix the ingredients well by  hand, and shape into four equal-sized patties. Chill them in the fridge  on a kitchen towel for 30 minutes  to set. Lightly fry the patties in olive oil  in a griddle pan over medium-high  heat for 8 minuntes each side,  turning once. Generously sprinkle  with grated cheese, and keep warm  in the oven until ready to serve. Make your own burger sauce  by mixing chutney, tomato sauce  and mayonnaise together, and spread  it over the buns. Assemble the burgers  with onion slices, burger patties  and rocket.

To make the coleslaw, combine  the ingredients in a large bowl, and  season to taste.
