METHOD
Step 1
Season your mince.
Step 2
divide into 8 equal parts and roll into balls.
Step 3
Drizzle your buns with oil and toast in a pan.
Step 4
mix the pesto with the mayonnaise.
Step 5
Make sure the blue cheese is room temperature.
Step 6
Do your patties in twos so you do not over fill you pan.
Step 7
heat your pan on a high heat then squash your balls in with a little oil. Burgers shrink when cooking so you want to make sure you press them down hard enough so they are noticeably bigger than the buns.
Step 8
If they do shrink a lot do not be shy in continuing to smash them during the cooking process.
Step 9
flip them immediately, add the cheese to both.
Step 10
after two minutes stack the patties, cover in foil on a plate.
Step 11
Once all the patties are cooked assemble starting with the spicy mayo on the bottom and ending with the spicy mayo on the top.
Step 12
Get stuck in!
