Ingredients

1 red pepper, cut into quarters

2 tbsp olive oil

400g lean steak

1 egg

1 grated carrot

Stale breadcrumbs

40g cheddar - finely sliced

Serving

6 floury rolls, halved

3 tbsp mayonnaise

¼ cucumber, or 1-2 mini cucumbers, sliced

Method

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put the pepper on a baking tray and rub with 1/2 tbsp oil. Roast in the oven for 25-30 mins, turning once halfway through. Remove and allow to cool slightly before finely chopping.

Tip the mince, roasted pepper, egg, carrot and breadcrumbs into a large bowl and mix well. Using your hands, shape the mixture into six equal burgers.

Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy-based, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the burgers for 5-6 mins each side until cooked through. Top with slices of cheddar. Spread the rolls with mayo, add the burgers and top with slices of cucumber.
