Instructions
Prepare the Potatoes:
- Preheat the oven or air fryer to 200°C (400°F).
- Cut the peeled Maris Piper potatoes into chip-sized pieces. Soak them in ice-cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch, then pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.
- Toss the potatoes with salt, black pepper, and a light spray of cooking oil.
- Air Fryer: Cook the potatoes at 180°C (350°F) for 25-30 minutes, shaking halfway through until crispy.
- Oven: Roast the potatoes on a baking tray for 30-45 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and crispy.
Cook the Mince:
- In a non-stick pan, heat a little cooking spray over medium heat and add the chopped white onion. Cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the 5% fat-free beef mince to the pan and brown it, breaking it apart with a spatula.
- Season the beef with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir in 1 tbsp tomato puree and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the beef is fully cooked.
- Once the beef is cooked, place a cheesy slice on top and allow it to melt.
Assemble the Bowl:
- Layer the bowl starting with the crispy potatoes as the base.
- Next, add the fresh iceberg lettuce, tomato, and cucumber on top of the potatoes
- Spoon the cooked Mince beef over the lettuce and veggies.
- Finish with a drizzle of burger sauce and tomato ketchup for that classic cheeseburger taste.
Notes
Customizations:
- Add More Veggies: For extra nutrients, add bell peppers or shredded carrots.
- Spice It Up: If you like heat, add a pinch of chilli flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce to your bowl.
- Change the Protein: Swap the beef for ground turkey or chicken to lower the fat content while keeping the protein high.
