[Savvy Shortcuts] NZ Cheesy Halloumi, Beef & Pork Burger

• Meanwhile, thinly slice tomato into rounds. • Cut halloumi into 1cm slices. 

• Combine beef & pork mince, All-American spice blend, fine breadcrumbs, the egg and a good pinch of pepper in a large bowl. • Using damp hands, shape mince mixture into 2cm-thick patties (1 per person).

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook halloumi, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate. • Wash and dry the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook patties until just cooked through, 4-5 minutes each side. • In the last 2-3 minutes of cook time, sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese over patties, then cover with a lid (or foil) and cook until cheese is melted.

• Meanwhile, halve burger buns and bake directly on a wire oven rack until heated through, 2-3 minutes.
