Ingredients
- 250 g Turkey mince
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoon red onion finely diced
- 1 tablespoon burger seasoning
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 50 g Light mature cheddar (slices)
- 2 burger buns
- 70 g lettuce
- 1 Beef tomato sliced
- 40 g pickled red onions
- 40 g gherkins sliced
- 2 portion burger sauce
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine 250 g Turkey mince, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon Burger seasoning and 2 tablespoon Red onion.
- Form into two patties.
- Heat 1 teaspoon Olive oil in a pan and add the burger patties. Smash the patty down with an oiled spatula. Fry over a medium-high heat for 4 minutes.
- Flip the burger over and cook for a further 4 minutes.
- Add 50 g Light mature cheddar to the burgers.
- Cover the burger with a cloche (we used a saucepan lid), and cook for one more minute. This will help the cheese to melt.
- Meanwhile, toast the 2 Burger buns.
- Build your burger. Spread 2 portion Burger sauce on both bun halves, then add 70 g Lettuce, 1 Beef tomato (sliced), 40 g Pickled red onions and 40 g Gherkins.

Notes
- meat thermometer
- Make sure your spatula is well oiled before using it to smash down the burgers, otherwise it will stick to it and pull it apart.
- Make sure to smash them down into thin patties.
- Don't worry if all the edges look uneven when you smash it down, as that's meant to happen. You get more crispy bits that way.
- Use a meat thermometer to make sure that the burgers are cooked all the way through. Ground turkey is cooked when it has an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Make sure your pan is really hot before adding the burgers, as you want them to start sizzling right away.
