Burgers Inside out. Upside down. with Cheese in the middle.

by Barry on June 30, 2008

I was late for a BBQ, mine.
I had asked some friends round to join us and FORGOT, Les always makes sure there's salad or something in the fridge.
With a packet of minced beef hiding behind the beers, Cheese burgers the joneses way, or so I thought, until Les pointed to James Martin with his INVERTED BURGER.

I still like mine best.
1lb/450g minced (ground) beef, mix with 1 large finely chopped onion, 2oz/60g finely chopped sun dried tomatoes and 1 egg. I use my hands, its great for relieving stress. (Don't forget to season with ground black pepper, as Les pointed out after she had taken her first mouthful).

Next, 2oz/60g of Halloumi cheese and 2oz/60g mature cheddar, put them in a food processor and blitz for a few seconds, tip the mixture out, divide into 4 equal portions and mould them into balls.

Divide the mince into 4 equal portions and form into round balls.
Make a deep dent in the mince, big enough to fit a cheese ball, the ones that have been sitting on the side for the last 10 minutes.

Pull the mince over the cheese to cover it in, and then gently flatten it, not too much.
Straight on the BBQ, turn frequently.
