Instructions

Get Frying
1
  • Heat a frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
  • Once hot, fry the pork mince, 5-6 mins.
  • Break up the mince as it cooks, then drain the fat.
  • Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
Toasting Time
2
  • Meanwhile, grate the cheese.
  • Halve the burger buns.
  • Toast the buns in your toaster.
Add Flavour
3
  • Once the pork has browned, stir in the beef stock paste, ketchup and water (see pantry for both). 
  • Simmer, 1-2 mins. Add a splash of water if needed. 
Dinner's Ready!
4
  • Top your bun bases with the pork mince, cheese and burger sauce - as much as you'd like. Sandwich shut with the lids.
  • Serve the baby leaf salad on the side.
  • Drizzle with balsamic glaze. Scatter over the pumpkin seeds.

Enjoy!
