Total Time 25 minutes mins
Avocado smash:
- 2 NZ Avocados scooped
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- Salt & pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
For the avocado smash: add all ingredients to a bowl and mash with a fork or spoon to a chunky consistency. Set aside.
Place Angel Bay premium beef burger patties onto an oven tray. Cook for 20 minutes.
Place the bacon rashers in a single layer on a tray. When the patties have 8 minutes cooking time remaining, add bacon to the oven.
When the patties have 5 minutes cooking time remaining, place a slice of cheese over each pattie.
Place the buns cut side up on a baking tray. Change the oven to grill. Cook buns for 2–5 minutes until just golden.
To assemble: Place the lower burger buns on a large chopping board and load avocado smash on top. Add a lettuce leaf and pickles (if using). Top with cheesy burger pattie, two slices of bacon and a fried egg. Slather the relish on the top bun and place on top of the loaded burgers. Serve hot.
Tip: Alternative method, cook on the barbecue.
- Preheat the barbecue. Drizzle with oil.
- Fry the burger patties for 5 minutes each side, or until cooked to your liking. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each and fry until melted. Yum.
- Fry the bacon for 2-3 minutes on each side, until crispy and cooked to your liking, then cut each into half.
- Fry the eggs sunny side up on the flat plate of the barbeque, season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Fry the burger buns until hot.
