Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
400g New Zealand Grass-Fed Angus Beef Mince
8 heaped teaspoons green pesto
1 X 400 g tin of plum tomatoes
1 x 125 g ball of mozzarella
4 Seeded Burger Buns
METHOD
- Use your clean hands to thoroughly mix the minced beef with half the pesto and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
- Split into 12 pieces and, with wet hands, roll into balls. Brown the balls all over in a non-stick frying pan on a high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, shaking the pan regularly.
- Once the balls turn golden, pour in the tomatoes, breaking them up with a wooden spoon, along with just a quarter of a tin’s worth of water.
- Bring to the boil, slice the mozzarella and lay over the balls, pop the lid on and leave to thicken for 5 minutes on a medium heat.
- Meanwhile, warm the buns in a large dry non-stick frying pan or in the oven on a low heat.
- Split each bun and spread 1 heaped teaspoon of pesto inside. Split up the balls and mozzarella with a little sauce, serving the rest on the side for dunking.
