Method

Fry off the onion and garlic in the Lurpak butter until the onions are translucent.

Shape into four patties then put in the fridge to chill for at least 30 minutes.
Fry the red onion until gently caramelised.
Grill the bacon until crispy.
When ready to serve, add the burgers to a chargrill and cook on each side for 5-6 minutes.
Add the Castello® Burger Blue slices on top and cover with a cloche or domed pan lid for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is oozing.
