When we have a burger it’s usually an opportunity for mischief and we often end up creating some remodelled “Monster Burger” So as Sue only had ½ a home made Gluten free bun in the freezer we though we should behave and go for the “Mini Monster” version. We still didn’t eat it all. Burger for breakfast it is then!!!!
The Burgers were in the discount at £1.35 for 4. They were labelled “Thai Chilli”. Well who knows? Sue made a Chilli sauce.
Ingredients:-
Tomato Puree
Tomato Sauce
White Wine Vinegar
Fresh ground Black Pepper
Incredibly hot Chilli flakes we bought at the Continental Shop…..
We used our now memorised and almost automated Bhaji batter for the Onion Rings:-
Ingredients:-
100g Gram flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp Chilli flakes
1 tsp ground Cloves
½ tsp Turmeric
Salt
The Burgers themselves had Mayo on the bun base, Salad, Gherkins, a Burger topped with Bacon, a little Chilli Sauce and melted Cheese. With the Burger repeated and then the bun lid added. The Skewer was needed or the whole thing would have collapsed, but the Onion ring on top was just for fun!
Served with a few home cut chips this whole creation was probably less than £3 for both of us…..
These were intended to be more of a Potato Rosti but our grater wasn't up to the job so I improvised! They were actually more like an Onion Bhaji. Certainly not a disaster, but I'm good to admit an error once in a while!
They are there on the plates, just dwarfed by Sue's monster pasties.......
We served them with Sue's giant home made Cornish Pasties – Recipe here

Cherry Tomatoes and red Onions dressed with a little oil and Parsley
Ingredients:-
3 large Potatoes, parboiled and sliced very thinly
2 Onions, sliced finely
3 tbls plain flour (Gluten free works fine)
2 tsp Chilli flakes
2 tsp Garlic salt
2 tsp Onion salt
2 Eggs
Oil for frying
Method:-
(1) Once the sliced Potatoes have cooled mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
(2) Form into fritters.
(3) Fry in a little oil turning once, until golden brown on both sides.
There is a 'Continental' shop not far from us. Next time we have a little spare cash we'll probably get a bag on Gram flour and try a proper Onion Bhaji recipe.
