Ingredients
- 1 lb extra lean beef mince
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- ⅓ cup your favourite beer/lager
- 2 pinches salt and pepper to season
- 4 medium eggs
- 4 pieces shortcut bacon fat removed
- ½ medium brown onion thinly sliced
- 4 slices pineapple canned in natural juice
- 1 handful rocket/arugula or lettuce
- 8 slices beetroot
- 4 slices cheese of choice - I use fat-free Cheddar
- 1 large tomato sliced and divided
- 4 medium bread rolls of choice halved
- 2 teaspoons tomato sauce
- 2 teaspoons mayonnaise optional
Instructions
- Combine meat together with the garlic, sauce and lager. Mix well with your hands for about a minute, until the meat has combined with the other ingredients. Divide meat mixture into 4 parts and firmly mould them into round patties about 1-inch thick.
- Heat a grill pan/skillet on medium-high heat. Sear hamburgers on both sides until golden and cooked to your liking.
- While the burgers are frying, fry the onion and bacon in a separate pan, until the onion is transparent and fragrant and the bacon is crispy on both sides.
- Transfer bacon and onion onto a paper towel; wipe pan over; add a drizzle of oil and fry the eggs until cooked to your liking.
- When the burger patties are done, transfer them onto a warmed plate; wipe pan over with a paper towel; and fry the pineapple rings (about 1 minute each side until caramelised).
- Build your burgers! Layer the base of each bun with the lettuce/arugula, beetroot slices, burger patties, cheese, pineapple rings, bacon, onion rings, tomato slices and the fried egg. Drizzle with tomato sauce and (optional) mayonnaise; top with remaining bun piece and serve!
