Cheese burger

Recipe of the week: 8th August 2011


This is a recipe I found on the Rosemary Conley website, which I have then adapted.



Ingredients
400g lean beef mince

1 red onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp of dried mixed herbs
Vegetable stock cube
4 slices of red onion
4 thin slices of low fat cheese
4 burger baps
1 tbsp low fat mayonnaise
2 leaves of iceberg lettuce
2 tomatoes

Method
1. Pre heat a non stick frying pan.
2. In a food processor, mix the beef, onions, herbs and stock cube.  This can be done by hand, but doesnt work as well.
3. Divide into 4, and mould into burger shapes, cook in the frying pan, turning regularly to cook equally for 16 minutes.
4. Slice the 4 burger buns in half and spread them with the mayonnaise.  Add the cooked burger, then the cheese, onion, lettuce and tomato.  Serve.

We served ours with low fat oven chips, but that will add to the calorie and fat content.
