Instructions

Get the Chips On
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide chips (no need to peel).

Pop the chips 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, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Make the Burgers
2

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

In a large bowl, combine half the garlic and the sausage meat. Roll into even-sized balls, then shape into 1cm thick burgers, 1 per person. TIP: The burgers will shrink a little during cooking. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

Time to Bake
3

Pop the burgers onto a medium baking tray.

Bake on the middle shelf until cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: The burgers are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Bring on the Sauce
4

Pop a large frying pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Stir in the remaining garlic and fry for 30 secs. Add the tomato puree and stir fry for 1 min, then stir in the chicken stock paste, sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts).

Stir to combine, bring to the boil, then simmer until the sauce has thickened, 4-5 mins.

Finishing Touches
5

When the tomato sauce has thickened, stir in the butter (see pantry for amount) and cheese. Taste the sauce and season. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.

Halve the burger buns into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Stack up and Serve
6

When everything's ready, share the burger buns between your plates.

Top the bases with the sausage burgers and spoon over the sauce. Drizzle over the pesto.

Sandwich together with the bun lids and serve with the chips alongside.

Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the tasty burger, though some found the combination of sauces overpowering or too salty.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and easy to make, but some found shaping the sausage meat sticky and tricky.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding a side salad or vegetables for balance and crunch. Reduce salt in the sauce for a milder flavour.
  • Portions: Several customers mentioned the meal could use more vegetables or a larger portion size.
