Ingredients

Cooking Method

Method:

  • 1
    Fry the bacon in a small pan over a medium heat for roughly 8-9 mins until golden and the fat is crispy. Set aside with a slotted spoon, but leave the fat in the pan.
  • 2
    Blitz the onion, garlic and chillies in a small food processor until very finely chopped.
  • 3
    Return the pan you cooked the bacon in to a medium heat and fry the onion, garlic and chilli mixture over a low heat for about 10-12 minutes until softened.
  • 4
    Return the bacon to the pan with the tomato puree, salt, sugar, vinegar and maple syrup. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced, thickened and the mixture has a jammy consistency, about 7-8 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • 5
    Make the burger patties by adding the meat minces to a small bowl with the oregano and garlic granules. Season well then mix with your hands, divide the mixture into two and shape into two patties.
  • 6
    Heat a nonstick frying pan over a medium heat and fry the patties on each side for 3-4 minutes until golden, caramelised and cooked all the way through.
  • 7
    Add the cheese slices on top of the patties, then wrap the burgers in foil for a couple of minutes to allow the patties to rest and the cheese to melt while you toast the muffins slightly.
  • 8
    Fry your eggs in the same pan you cooked the burgers in and cook to your liking. Then assemble your burgers with some rocket, a generous dollop of the bacon chilli jam, top with the patties and fried egg and enjoy.
