Double cheese and beef burger

    Heat a char-grill pan over moderate heat. Add patties; cook for 5 minutes. Turn; cook for 4 minutes, then top each patty with 2 slices of cheese. Cook for 1 minute more or until cheese starts to melt and patties are cooked.

    To assemble burger, place base of rolls on serving plates. Top each roll with lettuce, tomato, pickles and a patty. Top with chutney mixture. Replace roll tops. Serve burgers with wedges.

Notes

Make ahead: Prepare patties a day ahead. Cover, then refrigerate. For a 'works' burger, add a fried egg, crisp bacon, drained canned sliced pineapple and drained canned sliced beetroot. For quality beef, look for the Meat Standards Australia (MSA) symbol at participating butchers and supermarkets.
