Instructions

Bake the Wedges
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel).

Pop the wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf until golden, 30-40 mins. Turn halfway through.

Caramelise the Onion
2

Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat.

Once hot, add the onion and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden, 10-12 mins. Add the sugar (see pantry for amount) and half the jerk paste. Cook until caramelised, 1-2 mins more.

While the onion caramelises, cut the tomato into 1cm chunks. Grate the cheese. 

Halve the burger buns. Set aside for now.

Roll the Balls
3

In a large bowl, combine the remaining jerk paste and sausage meat.

Roll into even-sized balls, 5 per person. Pop onto another baking tray.

Lay the bacon rashers in a single layer on the other side of the ray. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.

Bake the Balls
4

When the wedges are halfway through cooking, bake the jerk meatballs and bacon on the top shelf until browned on the outside and cooked through, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The meatballs are cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the cider vinegar with the sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). 

Finishing Touches
5

When the jerk meatballs are cooked, remove the tray from the oven. 

Remove the bacon rashers and aside onto your board for later. Then, evenly glaze the meatballs with the honey (see pantry for amount). 

Push the glazed meatballs together to the centre of the tray and top with the caramelised onions and cheese.

Pop the burger buns onto the baking tray alongside the meatballs and return the tray to the top shelf until the cheese has melted and the buns have warmed through, 2-3 mins.

Serve
6

When everything's ready, add the tomato and baby leaves to the bowl with the dressing. Toss to coat the leaves.

Share the burger bases between serving plates. Spread half the mayo (see pantry for amount) onto the bun bases.

Top the bases with the bacon rashers and load on the cheesy sticky meatballs, spooning any remaining onions and cheese from the tray. Sandwich shut tightly with the bun lids

Serve with the salad on the side and dollop the remaining mayonnaise alongside (see pantry for amount) for dipping.
