Ingredients

1 red onion, Finely Sliced

50ml White Wine Vinegar

1 tbsp Caster Sugar

1/2 tbsp Flaky Sea Salt

2 large or 650g Sweet Potatoes

cut into 2cm Thick Wedges

1 tbsp Olive Oil

2 tsp Paprika

2 tbsp Light Brown Sugar

25ml Ale

1/2 tsp Rapeseed Oil

12 Streaky Bacon Rashers

4 Asda Extra Special Salt & Cracked Black Pepper Beef Burgers

115g Asda Red Leicester Cheese, finely sliced

100g Light Mayonnaise

1–2 tsp Asda Chipotle Paste

4 Asda Seeded Brioche Burger Buns

2 Tomatoes

Handful Salad Leaves

1/2 Avocado, thinly sliced

1/2 Cucumber, peeled into ribbons

Method

Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Make the quick pickled onions first. Mix the sliced red onion with the vinegar, sugar and salt. Cover, tossing occasionally, and leave for 20 mins.

Put the sweet potatoes onto a flat baking tray, drizzle with oil. Add paprika and a pinch of sea salt and toss so all is coated. Bake for 30–35 mins until golden and crisp. Turn halfway through.

For the bacon, mix the light brown sugar with the ale. Brush a baking tray with a little oil and lay the bacon rashers on it. Brush the ale mixture on top of the bacon. Cook in the same oven as the wedges for 5 mins, flip the bacon around and brush with more of the ale mixture. Continue for around 10 mins, flipping it around and brushing on more ale mix every 5 mins until crisp. Remove from the tray and place on baking paper.

When there are 15 mins remaining on the wedges, put the burgers on a flat baking tray and bake for 10–15 mins. Lay the cheese slices on top and cook for 2 mins to melt.

Mix the mayo with the chipotle paste. Toast the buns in a dry pan. Spread a thick layer of the chipotle mayo on the bun and top with the salad leaves. Place the burger on top, then add the bacon, tomato slices, avocado and cucumber. Finish with the pickled onions and close with the burger bun. Serve with wedges and any extra chipotle mayo on the side.
