Ingredients

  • 4 Waitrose Smoked British Streaky Bacon Rashers
  • 2 Eat Flexi British Beef, Mushroom & Mozzarella Quarter Pounders
  • 2 brioche burger buns, split open
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp chilli jam
  • 2 lettuce leaves
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • ¼ red onion, sliced into rings

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Put the bacon and the burgers on separate baking trays. Put both in the oven and cook for 20 minutes, adding the buns for the final 3 minutes to toast.

  2. Take the burgers and buns out of the oven, checking the juices run clear and no pink meat remains. If the bacon needs a little longer to crisp up, give it 3-4 minutes more, then pat with kitchen paper to remove any excess fat.

  3. To build the burgers, spread the bases and tops of the buns with the mayonnaise, then the chilli jam. Lay the lettuce leaves, sliced tomato and red onion on top of the bases, then add the burgers. Top with the bacon and finish with the bun tops.

Cook’s tip

Leftovers, chilli jam. This is an all-round winner. It’s delicious in sandwiches, and can be used to glaze meats before barbecuing or mixed with lime juice and oil as a dressing for grilled halloumi cheese.
