Monster burgers recipe

Ingredients

• 4 beef burgers (from a frozen 8-pack)
• 4 slices 30% reduced-fat Cheddar
• 4 seeded burger buns, halved
• 2 tbsp lighter mayonnaise
• 4 romaine lettuce leaves, halved
• 4 sliced gherkins (or 1 large gherkin, sliced lengthways into 4)
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 8 olives stuffed with pimientos

Method

1. Preheat the grill and cook the burgers to pack instructions. Meanwhile, cut 1 side of each Cheddar slice in a zigzag pattern using the tip of a knife, so you end up with 4 sets of ‘teeth’. Grill the burger buns, cut-side up, for 1 min until golden.
2. For each burger, spread the mayonnaise on both halves of the bun. On the bottom half, place a piece of lettuce, then the burger patty. Lay a gherkin slice over the top of the patty so it hangs over the edge to resemble a ‘tongue’. Add a jagged slice of cheese, then carefully squeeze some ketchup over the top of the teeth. Position the top half of the bun at a slight angle so you can see the mouth inside.
3. Skewer the olives on 8 cocktail sticks and push 2 through the top bun to make the eyes. Remove the cocktail sticks before eating.
