Ingredients

  • Hellmann's real mayonnaise
  • 250 grams low fat beef mince
  • 1 egg
  • mushrooms
  • pickles
  • 3 brioche buns
  • 1 tomato
  • olive oil
  • 1 rasher streaky bacon

Instructions

  • Chop the bacon finely and mix into the mince mixture along with the egg
  • Add about a tablespoon of Hellmann's mayonnaise and season well with salt and pepper
  • Once the mixture is well blended, split into three parts.  Press them into burger patties, cover with cling film and leave to rest in the fridge
  • When you are ready to cook, slice the red onion, pickles and mushrooms finely
  • Heat a griddle or barbecue and oil lightly with olive oil
  • Griddle the meat patties for about 4 minutes on each side, turning 90 degrees once on each side during cooking. Put in a warm place to rest
  • Now cook the onions in the meat juices, adding more oil if necessary.  Once they start to caramelise at the sides, add the mushrooms and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes before putting in a warm place
  • Split the brioche rolls and griddle for a minute on each side.
  • Make up your burgers, starting with a generous dollop of Hellman's, followed by the meat pattie, topped with a slice of tomato, some salad leaves or watercress and a teaspoon of the mushroom and red onion mixture.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

This recipe is infinitely variable.  Try making it with lamb or turkey mince and seasoning with chilli or herbs.
