Ingredients

450g veal mince (ideally15-20% fat)
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
8 cheddar or Red Leicester slices
5 tbsp tomato ketchup
2 tbsp mayonnaise
4 large, soft brioche buns or burger buns, halved
4 thick iceburg lettuce leaves
4 thick slices of beefsteak tomatoes
4 very thin slices red onion
2 gherkins, thinly sliced

  1. Put the meat and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl and season with black pepper and salt. Mix together well, then shape the meat into 4 thin, flat burgers. Chill until needed.  Can be made a day ahead.

  2. Combine the ketchup and the mayonnaise in a bowl to make a sauce.

  3. Using a griddle pan on the hob, cook the burgers over a high heat for 2 mins on each side. Top each with 2 slices of cheese and cook for another 30 seconds until the cheese has melted, then remove from teh heat. Toast the buns for a few seconds on the cut-side.

  4. Spread a little of the spicy sauce on the base of each bun and top with the lettuce, tomato, a burger patty, onion and pickles. Top with the bun lid and eat straight away.
