Supplies
- 500 grams mince beef
- 1 pack American cheese slices
- 150 grams cheddar cheese grated
- Thick white bread

- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 50 grams gherkins, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon English mustard
- 50 grams butter
Steps
- Take your beef mince and season liberally with salt and

- Bread.
- Chop the onions finely and cook out over a low heat
- Until softened. Add in the sugar and start to caramelise.
- Fry your patties over a high heat until just cooked -
- They should be about 1 centimeter thick so this should take no
- More than 2 minutes on each side. Set these to one side.
- Take two slices of bread and butter two sides. Smear
- The other sides in English mustard. Add a patty on top,
- Along with a sprinkling of gherkins and the caramelised
- Onions. Top this with plenty of cheese and close the
