Serving Suggestions

Note

• There’s room for a few vegetables on the burger. You could also replace the usual store bought deep fried hot chips with homemade baked potato or sweet potato chips, a handful of steamed frozen corn and peas or a little side salad.
• Feel free to use chicken mince instead of beef, perhaps switching to seeded mustard rather than Dijon.
