Serves 2 | 456 cal

Ingredients

• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 ½ tsp olive oil, divided
• 12 oz/340g 95% lean ground beef
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce or steak sauce
• ¼ tsp freshly ground pepper
• 2 sprouted whole-grain hamburger buns
• 4 slices tomato
• 2 leaves romaine lettuce
• 2 tsp dill pickle relish
• 5oz/141g white potatoes, sliced into strips
• Salt and pepper to taste

Method

Step 1

Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, cover and cook, stirring often until the onion is softened, 4 to 6 minutes.

Step 2

Reduce heat to medium-low, uncover and cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft, 5 to 8 minutes more. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool for a few minutes.

Step 3

Add beef, Worcestershire (or steak sauce) and pepper to the onion and gently combine without over mixing. Form into 2 patties, about ¾ inch thick.

Step 4

Coat a nonstick pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Add burgers, reduce heat to medium and cook, turning once (about 5 minutes per side).

Step 5

For the fries, preheat the oven to 400°F/204°C. Line a pan with parchment paper. Toss the sliced potatoes with ½ tsp olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 6

To assemble, place a patty on a burger bun with 2 tomato slices, lettuce and 1 tsp relish. Serve with ½ the fries. Save the leftovers in an airtight container for another meal.
