Beef Patty

Hamburger


Instructions
  1. Combine all the Beef Patty ingredients in a bowl. Use your hands to mix until everything is incorporated.

  2. Split the mince into 4 balls and flatten into patties, make them slightly larger than the hamburger buns (they will shrink when cooking).

  3. Let the patties rest in the fridge for a minimum of 15 minutes.

  4. Heat oil in a large heavy-based pan over high heat, or a BBQ. Place patties in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until the underside is browned. Flip the patty and cook the other side for 1 minute.

  5. Then place a slice of swiss cheese on each Beef Patty, cover with a lid and cook for a further 1 minutes until the cheese has melted. Note cooking time may vary depending on your patty thickness and pan or BBQ heat.

  6. Remove Beef Patties from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes.

  7. Meanwhile, add the pineapple slices to the hot pan or BBQ and let them caramelise on both sides then remove from the heat. You can lightly toast the hamburger buns (optional).

  8. Finally to assemble, spread the BBQ sauce on the bottom hamburger bun. Add a slice of Cheddar cheese (it will melt with the heat of the beef patty) Then place the patty on top. Follow by adding the grilled pineapple, fresh red onion, beetroot slices, tomato slices and lettuce. Lastly just spread tomato sauce on the bun and place on top. Enjoy your Downunder Deluxe!

Instructions
  1. In a bowl mix flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, allspice and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together butter, sugar and egg, then slowly stir in molasses. Gradually add in the dry mixture, stirring until incorporated.
  2. Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, this will help the cookies maintain their shape while being baked.
  3. Preheat fan forced oven at 160C°, and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  4. Make rounded scoops with the batter and place on the baking tray overlaid with non-stick baking paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Let the cookies rest of the pan for least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  5. To make the filling combine butter and cream cheese in a large bowl and beat it on medium-high speed with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Change the mixer to low speed and gently add the icing sugar, keep whipping the mixture until all the sugar has dissolved and incorporated. Add sea salt, lemon juice and lemon zest.
  6. To assemble the sandwiches, divide the filling among half the cookies, spreading out to the edges, then lightly sprinkle with some more lemon zest. Serve with a cold glass of milk!
