     Title: Matthew's Homemade Beef Burger w/Stilton Rarebit
Categories: Beef, Cheese, Breads, Potatoes, Beer
     Yield: 4 Servings

MMMMM---------------------------BURGER--------------------------------
   800 g  Beef mince
     1 sm Onion; fine diced
     2 cl Garlic; crushed
     2 tb Worcestershire sauce
     2 tb Anchovy sauce
     2 tb Parsley; chopped
          Salt & pepper
          Oil

MMMMM------------------------CHUNKY CHIPS-----------------------------
     6 lg Maris Piper potatoes;
          - peeled
          Salt & pepper

MMMMM----------------------STILTON RAREBIT---------------------------
    65 g  Stilton; crumbled
    25 g  Butter
    25 g  Plain flour
   110 ml Ale
    65 g  Cheddar; grated
   1/2 ts English mustard
   1/2 ts Worcestershire sauce
          Salt & pepper

MMMMM------------------------BURGER SAUCE-----------------------------
    50 ml Tomato ketchup
    50 g  French's classic mustard

MMMMM--------------------------TO SERVE-------------------------------
     4    Burger buns
     1    Head Baby Gem lettuce;
          - leaves picked
     2    Tomatoes; sliced

 Sweat the onion and garlic in a little olive oil until
 translucent. Allow to cool

 Mix with the beef mince and the rest of the ingredients.
 Shape into 4 even burger patties, using a press or by
 hand. Chill the patties for 30 minutes in the fridge

 Meanwhile, slice the Maris Piper potatoes into thick
 chips and wash well under cold water. Place in a pan and
 cover with fresh cold water. Season and bring to the boil

 Once boiling, remove from the heat and drain - making
 sure not to break up the chips. Spread out on a tray to
 cool and dry

 For the rarebit, melt the butter in a saucepan and add
 the flour to form a roux. Cook gently for 2 minutes and
 then slowly add the beer, whisking all the time

 Bring to the simmer and cook very gently for 5 minutes,
 stirring continuously. Add the rest of the Stilton
 rarebit ingredients, season, and mix well until smooth.
 Pour into a suitable container and leave to cool

 Season the burgers and sear both sides in a hot pan with
 oil. Transfer to an oven set to 180ºC/gas mark 4 and
 allow to cook through for 10 minutes

 Remove the burgers from the oven, spoon a little of the
 rarebit mix over each and transfer to the grill or
 barbecue for a few minutes so that the rarebit mixture is
 bubbling on top. Allow to rest for a couple of minutes

 Deep fry the chips in oil at 180ºC until crispy and
 golden, then drain and season

 Mix the ketchup and mustard together in a bowl to make
 the burger sauce

 Place the burgers in the buns along with some lettuce and
 slices of tomato. Spoon the burger sauce onto the burgers
 and serve with the chunky chips
