Introduction
This recipe is our essential guide to creating a Blue Cheeseburger. Everything from the Blue Cheese, right through to the Relish, every component has a vital roll to perfecting this show-stopping burger. Below is all you need to create, with an easy step-by-step guide to stacking the build of your burger and creating the most amazing Cheeseburger.Method
- Heat a heavy based non-stick frying pan over medium-heat. Split and toast the brioche buns until nice and golden, about 1 to 2 minutes, being careful, as they will burn quickly. Remove & keep warm.
- For the patties place a thumbprint in the centre of each patty to help the cook evenly. Season both sides of each patty with sea salt and cracked black pepper and gently rub a little oil or fat onto both sides.
- Bring the frying pan to full heat then fry the patties, 4 minutes per side, for medium-cooked burgers (cook longer if you prefer your burgers well done). In the last minute of cooking add the butter & baste over the burgers, this will make them extra rich and juicy.
To build the burgers:
- Spoon the onion relish onto the base of the toasted brioche
- Next add a few lettuce leaves
- Place the tomato on top
- Place the Pattie on to the tomato
- Top with crumbled Gorgonzola
- Add some more lettuce leaves
- Scatter some dill pickles over the lettuce
- Spoon the burger relish onto the toasted lid & place on top
- Enjoy!!!
