METHOD

Mix all lamb burger ingredients together. Form into 2 or 4 patties and refrigerate for 30 mins or until ready to cook.

Heat your Legacy Pan until it’s almost smoking over a high heat. Lower heat to low and add olive oil, bayleaves and burgers.

If making 2 burgers, fry for each side for 3-4 minutes until brown and caramelised. Turn off the pan. If making 4 burgers halve the cooking time. Cover meat with tin foil and leave for 5 minutes.

TO ASSEMBLE

Heat your Legacy Pan on medium and brush the cut sides of buns with butter.

Fry until brown and crunchy. Put in oven on low heat to keep warm if necessary.

Slather each cut side with mayonnaise and beetroot relish.

Place lettuce leaves on the bottom side of each bun.

Layer gherkins and tomatoes.

Nestle hot burger on top.

Sprinkle generously with pink pepper corns and fresh basil leaves.

Pop the bun top on and serve immediately with rosemary roast potatoes or chips.
