Method
- Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large frying pan over a low heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 5 minutes to soften, then transfer to a large bowl using a slotted spoon. Increase the heat, add the bacon and fry until starting to crisp. Add to the onion and allow to cool.
- Add the beef mince to the bowl, together with the parsley, mustard, some seasoning and enough egg to bind. With damp hands, form the mixture into 4 burgers, place on a plate lined with baking paper, then chill in the fridge for 15 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and cook the burgers over a medium heat for 5-6 minutes on each side. Remove to a baking sheet, top with the Brie and grill for 2-3 minutes until melted. Drizzle the cut sides of the rolls with a little oil and grill alongside the burgers until golden.
- Serve each burger in a toasted bun with peppery rocket, tomato slices and a dollop of mayonnaise.

I love this recipe because after giving it a go last week, both friends and family absolutely loved them and have already been requested to do them again on Saturday nights before going out or staying in. Thank you!
I love this recipe because the kids love it and that means we all get to have great healthy home made burgers for the barbeque, absolutely brilliant !
