• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 400 g ground pork
• Stilton cheese or blue cheese
• 1 large onion
• 1 slice bread
• applesauce
• 1 egg yolk
• salt
• fresh ground pepper

directions

1. You will need about 2 desert spoons of apple sauce and it needs to be the kind with bits of apple in and not the smooth kind.
2. Cut the cheese into little cubes.
3. In a mixer, whiz the bread to make Breadcrumbs and set aside.
4. Now, whiz the onion so they're nicely choped, and then transfer to a large mixing bowl.
5. Then using the mixer again, mix the Pork until it’s chopped up a bit finer.
6. Transfer the pork to the bowl with the onion.
7. Add half the breadcrumbs and mix together adding the egg yolk, apple sauce, a pinch of salt and some freshly ground pepper.
8. Only mix in the rest of the breadcrumbs if the mixture looks too wet.
9. Now carefully mix in the cheese, try not to break it up too much.
10. Divide the mixture into 4 or 6 (depending how large you want your burgers)! with floured hands and on a floured board shape into burgers.
11. Using a large pan, fry in a little olive oil until cooked. Try not the turn too many times so they get a nice colour and are cooked through.
12. Serve in warm toasted burger buns with salad and whatever else you fancy.
