• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• Cut potato into fries.
• Place fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
• Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.
• Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, peel cucumber into ribbons (stopping when you reach the seeds in the centre).
• Grate beetroot. Halve fresh chillis. Grate Totara Tasty Cheddar.
• In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, classic roast seasoning, fine breadcrumbs, the egg (1 for 2 people / 2 for 4 people) and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Shape beef mixture into 2m-thick patties (1 per person).

• In a large frying pan, heat a good drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook beetroot, diced bacon, the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar until softened, 2-3 minutes.
• Add the water and onion chutney and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced, 2-3 minutes. Season to taste and transfer to a bowl.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook beef patties until just cooked through,4-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).
• In the last 1-2 minutes of cook time, sprinkle Cheddar cheese over patties and cover with a lid (or foil), until cheese melts.
• Meanwhile, halve burger buns and bake directly on a wire oven rack until heated through, 2-3 minutes.
• Spread each burger bun with garlic aioli.
• Top with a beef patty. Lay the reserved cucumber ribbon over the top of the patty so it hangs over the edge to resemble a 'tongue'.
• Continue building with bacon-beetroot relish and cos lettuce.
• Skewer chillis on 4 toothpicks for 2P and 8 toothpicks for 4P and push 2 through the top of each bun to make the horns. Remove the cocktail sticks before eating.
• Serve with fries. Enjoy!
